Droid Cell Phone

If you have been with us for any period of time you may have heard us discuss the future of Droid Cell Phone. With any website we are going through a beta process. This would include us watching where our users are coming from and what they are reading etc. You can help us  by linking to this site from your blog, MySpace Page, FaceBook, Twitter or wherever you socialize online. When we see incoming links we can see what users want.

Our beta process also helps us determine which direction to take as we move forward. One of the trends we see is users of Android Phones looking for "How To" and "Best Apps" information. This has prompted us to begin the development of a knowledge base and a Video How To series.

We hope to reorganize the website and have a place for these new features very soon. For now you can view the Video's on our Droid Cell Phone YouTube Channel. We are just getting started so make sure you subscribe to get updates from YouTube. Feel free to comment on the video's. You will notice that I'm making the how to's . I am no rock star when it comes to making video. We may hire someone to do them for us to make them more professional.

Even though we have only been live for a short period of time we have seen thousands of users everyday. You may remember us being down a couple times. That was us not watching bandwidth usage. My Bad.

We have received a couple emails asking why we don't allow comments. Well the answer is spam. We have been building websites like this for many years and comment spam is a huge problem. This is just another reason to consider us a beta site. We are moving slow to see what happens. As of today comments will be allowed, but need to be approved.

A final note: I (Bill) have been watching the development of Android since the very first day. I have been sitting back and watching to see what will happen. Now that the OS is being embraced this site will grow very fast. We are starting to develop some applications and are participating in the Open Source Movement. We hope to become a real authority on the Internet for Android.

I was chatting with one of my phone buddies yesterday and he mentioned that WireFly.com was getting a better price for Droids than we paid. Being as cheap as I am I had to investigate.

After contacting the guys and gals WF what I found was good news for the people who havnt purchased a Droid Phone yet. Bad news for me and my friends who bought the first night of release. Wirefly is selling The Droid and Eris for much less than anyone else. We are not allowed to mention the price but trust me you can get about 25% off and no rebates to deal with. They also ship FedEx.

As far as we know now these price's will only be good for a limited time. So if you are on the fence about about buying the Droid or Eris this could be the closer.

Its been one week since The Droid Phones where released. All my associates and I feel the droid is going to be a great phone for the masses. So far we have not found any major cliches with The Droid except for some minor inconveniences. Things like getting use to the keyboard do not out weigh the functionality of the phone. Simply put the Droid and Eris are major step forward for cell phone and smartphone users. Along with being amazing phones they will help put devices like this in the average persons pocket.

So unless you live under a rock you have probably heard of Android? No!

Lots techies and internet enthusiasts think everyone knows what Android is. Not the case we have found that lots of people have no clue what Android is or what it's for.

Android is a Open Source development platform Google Started about 2 years ago. The very smart people at Google knew all the information they had would one day help us with our lives.

Android is the first free, open source, and fully customizable mobile platform. Android offers a full stack: an operating system, middleware, and key mobile applications. It also contains a rich set of APIs that allows third-party developers to develop great applications. All you need to do is download some software and you are on your way to building your on application, widget or tool.

Android 1.6 first appeared on T-Mobile Cell Phones and are now moving into the next phase of development by teaming up with Verizon

What more can we ask for than the power of the biggest Internet empire and all there data knowledge. Over the next several weeks will be making many posts about developing apps as we hope build some with you. Check out the great video from the developer website. We hope you join us in developing with Android.
