Looking at Moving to Android

Now that I've got my calendar/contact sync issues pretty much resolved, I'm starting to think about moving to an Android-based phone. You know, because I can't leave well enough alone.

Apparently Amazon has opened a new wireless store, which is interesting, and looks like, at the very least, a sort of vendor-neutral place you can see what's out there. My current leading choice, since I'm on Verizon now, is the HTC Droid Incredible. The speed and screen are appealing, and the camera is hands down better than my crappy Blackberry Curve camera (even if the Incredible gives things a slight blue tint).

Maybe in a couple of weeks or so, when I have a weekend free to head in and switch. I'll need the weekend to get myself all set up. :)

I think you'll really like the Android phones. Tracy, Adam, my Dad, Shanna, Misty, Juan, and a guy I work with all have Droids (mostly MotoDroid.) We all like them. My issue is that I want a phone first and foremost. The MotoDroid can get bogged down and make it hard to answer incoming calls sometimes. Also, I've had it crash for absolutely no reason and reboot. Reboot takes about 2 to 3 minutes. However, these things don't happen very often and there are a lot of really nice advantages to Droid like the apps/time wasters, and email and calendar integration built-in with Google.
