DROID Shadow pre-release thread

[Droid800]

Yeah, this so called "Ninjablur" is not sounding so great. If it was, we would be hearing about it. Instead, someone with the phone was quoted saying, "Ninja Blur is Blur running without the user knowing. For those who don't like Blur." Engadget goes on to say, "Translation: it's an Android skin that does very little but make aesthetic differentiators and probably slows down the processing speed a bit." And they're right. Give me stock Android 2.2 and I'll be happy.

Engadget assumes all that. IIRC, the person that first posted about NinjaBlur said that it, in fact, works to speed the phone UP, not down.

Considering that no one really knows much about it, the smart thing for EVERYONE to do would be to sit back and wait for the phone to be released before passing judgement.

Would be nice for this to have a front-facing camera, you know, "future-proofing" the device.

the front facing camera at this point is the only thing holding me back. i know i will want one and dont want to buy another device

Not my pics, its from 'maddigital' over at Android Forums. I'm just posting it for him. There might be more pics coming from other devices.

 

[thebizz]

yeah read the thread and saw he asked who wanted to host them
cant wait to see other devices. maybe a droid pro

 

[matrix2004]

surprised the pics are not on the front page.

 

[Stang68]

They are now!

This Droid Pro, will it have a keyboard? I reallyyy want a physical keyboard...and vanilla Android 2.2 haha

 

[thebizz]

From what I read yes it will have a physical keyboard much improved

 

[Stang68]

Hmm...then why the Droid2? It doesn't seem much improved and if a Droid Pro is coming out, I don't see the point. Maybe they just want to target the lower-end demographic with a slightly updated Droid?

DroidPro/WE is a GSM/CDMA World Edition phone. Droid 2 is just a an updated Droid.

Ahh I need a World Edition! This Droid Pro sounds great. I was just talking about how I wish my Droid was a world phone. I may have to wait and not purchase the Xtreme

At least one of the Droids coming at the end of the year will have a front facing camera.
