After contemplating it for a couple of months, I finally upgraded my Rogue to a Droid X.
I played with one at a Verizon store in Manhattan and now that they run Android 2.2 and I was able to get it online from Verizon for a good price (I had a few upgrades and deals stacked), it was a good decision.
This phone is awesome. It's comparable to the iphone; a mini computer in your pocket. Not to sound like a Linux snob but I like it more than iphones: it's more customizable.
Naturally I've downloaded a bunch of great apps (all free of course) and rearranged the layout of things. I do like to customize my things.
Synching my email and contacts is great; I've never owned a smart phone or Blackberry before.
And I LOVE the Swype keyboard!!
Aside from the standard touch-screen keyboard to tap on like every other device that doesn't have a physical keyboard, the Swype keyboard let's you slide your finger across the on-screen keys without lifting your finger off the screen. It uses some A.I. with word predictability and I guess pattern recognition to determine what word you want.
I wrote this entire entry on my Droid using the Swype keyboard! It makes "typing" really fun, like a game. =)
TL,DR version: I got a Droid X and it's awesome.
