So I've had my Motorola Droid for a few days and thought it was time to post some of my findings.
1. Open Home is awesome and will open up your available space. It supports 2.0 but can still be a bit buggy on the Droid. I've had a couple of crashes, but it restarts quickly.
-7 home screens
-Support for a large library of skins
2. Better Keyboard is a much better virtual keyboard that you can set to replace the stock keyboard.
-Feels similar or better than the Hero's keyboard
-Skins available on the Market
3. Get the accessories. Even if you don't use the navigation app, the car dock is awesome for mounting your device if you use it to play music while in the car.
4. Manage your radios with the provided widget, this gives you quick and easy access to disable and enable your wifi, bluetooth, gps, and much more.
5. Take time to get used to the physical keyboard, it gets better.
6. The camera is good, once it focuses. Just keep trying and be patient, it appears an update is in the works. See below for more information.
7. Want to tether, PDAnet works. See another post I made.
Rumored updates are coming on December 11th that will fix many of the early bugs that have been reported so far. Verizon is really on the ball it appears. Via Phandroid
I'll add more as I think of them, if others in this forum have this device or any other general Android tips please post them.
