Thread: Calling all moto droid users

I dont know about the tethering but i do know its a sweet phone My mom got one and now i want one its fast and has a ton of apps

yea i want one but in the end i have had bad luck with touch screens

I have the G1 and i love the gps by google, the voice gets a little annoying from time to time, but thats what mute is for, as fasr as tethering, im not sure about that model of phone, but i know with my droid i had to root my phone and install cyanogen mod to use the tethering.

my cousin has one, its pretty sweet. i either want this or the ipod touch... anyone know when the new touch is supposed to come out?

I've got it, it's like one of the coolest things I've ever owned. The gps stopped working today while driving and I got completely lost though, but there's also some wierd teapot whistling noise in the earpiece so I think I just need to exchange the phone.

I want one so bad.

But I'm not paying full price.

I've got one and love it. There are tons of apps, some are completely useless, just fun, or really useful.

PdaNet will let you connect to the internet through your laptop, it's free and damn fast to.

It would be even better if it was unlimited like the google system on the droid. Hell if that were true Id go buy one for myself and my wife and never use home internet cable or tv ever again. All through VZW would be fine with me. So anyone know how much internet I can get out of the droid if slaved to my laptop? More than 5 would be excellent. DAMN what should I do??

It's unlimited with the data plan, it's fast for loading regular pages and images, but as soon as you try and load a video. flash. or gif it's kinda slow.

If you're just simple web browsing like the forum, facebook, google, etc you'll be good. But when you go to download big files or load videos/movies it'll be quite a bit slower than your home network. If you're gunna do it make sure you get the unlimited plan, theres 2, unlimited data and unlimited web for smartphone, if you get the cheaper one you only get unlimited for the phone, when you plug into the computer they start charging you.
