Cool. I dont want to switch to AT&T or else I’d already have an iPhone. My music stuff stays separate on the iPod, so no probs there. ---

it’s $299 then you get a $100 rebate debit card for an upgrade and a new activation I am on the fence I don’t know if I want to spend the extra $30 a month for the data plan. I did go and check it out though it’s a sweet ass phone. ---

I got the droid yesterday and absolutly love it, its much different than the iphone in many ways but for me its in better ways. Not as out of the box intuitive but many more options for customization. Also you can download apps like ringdroid to help you make custom ring tones from songs. I have yet to put any music on my phone though, just using Pandora. Edit: size wise its almost exactly the same as Iphone. ---

Still getting used to mine. I’m still typing on the keyboard like it was a Blackberry and the result is borderline unreadable. ---

> [@2007 Roll Call](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/2007-roll-call/25506/53): > > Agree 100% Vlad!! I guess iPhone users are on the same page about the droid matter. It’s a fantastic phone, but it doesn’t have anything so revolutionary, spectacular or mind blowing that would make me regret the purchase of the iPhone, or even really want to go after a droid. I know, if I started using a droid right now, I’d miss some of the fine tune features that iPhone spoiled me on. Plus after 4 years with them, I hate Verizon, even if it does have the best damn coverage. Let me put it this way, if iPhone didn’t exist I’d be using a Droid right now. ---

Yes coverage is an issue with AT&T definitely. While I’ll have _service_ in 99% of areas I frequent, 3G is skimpy at places and I’m afraid that I may end up living where there is no 3G available. Hopefully they’ll improve on that. ---

What features of the iphone would you miss vlad? The keyboard deff takes getting used to but now after just a day I can type almost as fast and effortlessly as I could on the envy, far faster than I can on the iphone even after months of tinkering with my gfs.
