Anyone seriosuly looking at the new DROID?

I ditched my BB Curve and got the Droid Friday. Still putting it through its paces but so far I like it.
If you just need a no nonsense phone the BB was great.
I like gadgets so I went with the Droid. The keyboard isn't that bad. Not a BB, but not bad.

Vince, any chance you would put a trial of Picsay imaging on your Droid and give us a FINAL verdict on if the hardware supports multitouch?

who cares if some picture app has multitouch? the phone/os can support multitouch but currently does not on useful things such as the virtual keyboard. And browser doesn't currently have pinch zoom, although both are a software update away

That is the exact point I was trying to prove, seems like some of the "official" talk is that its not built into the hardware at all. I think that's a load of cow dung.... but nevertheless it seems a tad concerning, because I WANT that possibility of a software update sometime in the future when *cough* Google stops tiptoeing around Apple.

(and yeah, some picture app with multitouch... yawn, don't care )

Sure. I just did and it does pinch support multitouch.

Woohoo, Thanks Vince!!

That means we probably WILL get a better browser experience in the future. That makes me very very happy.... and all but seals up the fact that I'm getting that phone in the next 48 hours!
