			my wife and I both have the Motorola Droid and we love. Its a badass phone and as long as you download a task manger so you can end you Alps battery lasts a while. I charge mine at night when I sleep and 9 times out of 10 I'm good for the whole day. PS this is sent from my Droid.

			i bought the eris a couple months ago, wish i waited for this, looks like mine but twice as good
 and ya if the battery is anything like the eris (both HTC droids), the battery life is horrible. lasts about a day

			i wanted the droid .... but after checking it out and using it in the store,I realized that I needed a phone that was touch screen and had keyboard option.
 due to my large hands/fingers, textin with a touch screen is near impossible.
 
 I bought the lg touch env2 love it!!!

The droid has a keyboard.  Did you slide it open?
 
I have the droid and I LOVE IT!  Best phone I have ever owned by far.  Blows my old LG Voyager out of the water.  My only suggestion.... if you want to get your outlook e-mail hooked into the droid like blackberrys do, get an app called Touchdown.  It costs $20 but is well worth it.

			The Motorola Droid is the one with the slide out keyboard. The HTC Eris does not have a slide out keyboard and the new one I believe does not. To be perfectly honest I rarely use the slide keyboard because the the touch keyboard is very accurate but that's just me.

			There are some solid +'s to the incredible however I prefer having an actual keyboard for texting. The touch screen keyboards have gotten really good but just aren't for me. If you can get past that, I would choose it over a droid.

			I dont have verizon so I can't get the droid. But I have an android phone(Same operation system as the droid), and can say that my current phone is much better than the past smartphones I've had. With an android phone, I no longer have that "I wish I had an Iphone" feeling. With the droid, you'll be able to do just about everything an Iphone does, and run multiple programs at once(Iphone can't do that until their next round of updates)

			I have it, I really like it, battery life does kinda suck though.  If I don't play with it a lot I have gotten ALMOST 24 hours out of it.  Usually I have to charge every 8-11 hours depending on what I am doing, I have not downloaded the battery manager yet, I may though.

			I'm in the same boat have to wait til june 30 and now I'm hearing about the ALLY phone?  anyone know anything about this phone?  Otherwise I think I'll go with the Incredible unless Verizon decides to tell us if they are getting their version of the I Phone.

			One thing I didnt like hearing is the smallish battery for that phone.  Its like 1000mAh?  My Storm is 1400mAh and I can burn that out in 8 hours under heavy use.

			If you are holding out for a Verizon iPhone, you may be in luck.....WWDC is June 7 - 11, and any Verizon iPhone announcement is likely to come then.

			It's all speculation at this point. No one knows for sure how long the exclusivity deal between Apple and AT&T is actually good for. And having Apple jump to Verizon after that makes sense, but isn't a guarantee. We'll just have to wait and see.
 Even if they do announce a deal with Verizon for this year with the 4G phone, you won't be able to buy it at least until sometime this fall.
