Droid price drops to $120 in some places, selling well
So you want a new iPhone 3GS? That’ll cost you $199 plus a two year contract with AT&T that can easily cost $90+ a month for one person. But what if you want a Motorola Droid? While that will cost you $200 with a two year contract at Verizon, this isn’t your only option. Dell is selling the Droid for a slim $119.99 price tag with a service contract.
Droid appearing on Google and causing lines, what about iPhone?
The day of the Droid came and left with relatively little press coverage compared to what we’ve seen from the iPhone in previous launches. However, that isn’t to say the Droid isn’t receiving its fair share of publicity, and for good reason. While I haven’t personally gotten my hands on one of these devices, I’ve heard many great things not only about Android 2.0 and the hardware, but about Verizon’s great coverage as well. With a large touch screen and nice camera, it’s not really a surprise that small lines formed by customers waiting to get their hands on one of these.
Verizon pulls a Microsoft, runs attack ads against Apple
Droid, a new phone emerging in the mobile marketplace through a cooperative effort with Verizon and Motorola, is turning out to cause quite a ruckus as the first true iPhone competitor. At least that’s what the companies are trying to get at through their clever new commercial that flat out attacks the weak points of Apple’s iPhone. The ad, which is 30 seconds in length, starts off with an Apple-esque song and black text that drops down on a white background reading “iDon’t run widgets,” “iDon’t allow open development,” and “iDon’t have a real keyboard,” and such.
