Motorola Droid: iPhone Killer? Not Really



There was a lot of buzz when the Droid came out that it could be an “iPhone killer.” But now that the hype has died down, it is plain to see that the existence of the Droid hasn’t put the iPhone out of commision.

While the Droid is a definite competitor for the iPhone, it has its drawbacks as well. One of its biggest strengths is its speed, which is hands down faster than the iPhone. However, currently the Android Marketplace doesn’t come anywhere near the iPhone’s App Store in terms of availability of applications, with the App Store coming in with around 100,000 applications compared to Android’s meager 10,000.

The Droid also has a slide out keyboard in addition to its on-screen text writing software. By contrast, the iPhone lacks any keyboard hardware, though some users have reported that they find this feature to be more obtrusive than useful.
