tried handcent and ChompSMS or whatever… Chomp is way better w/the quick reply pop up. Likey likey.

Had this phone for 3 days now and I’ve been playing with it non-stop. Keep finding new things too. Its almost never ending. I’ve never had a cool phone.

> well exchange stopped syncing completely and I tried touchdown and it works. Is this an issue with anyone else? Seems like The native program should at least work but instead it quit working yesterday and honestly even though touchdown works it is really not looking that good when the mail is displayed. This is a deal breaker if the mail requiires me to jump through hoops to make it work consistantly.

touchdown looks good on the droid…what’s the issue? You just don’t like the way it looks?

I don’t really care, at least i don’t get double notifications now. I couldn’t get them to go away with handcent after disabling all the junk in messages.

Live wallpaper is titties. Anyone get the Nexus live wallpaper to work on the droid? I see it’s $2 or something in the market.
