Droid Moniker

Does anyone have any thoughts on whether the HTC Thunderbolt gets the Droid moniker? I hope it does.

Me too. It is incouraging that the RUU has been torn apart and there are no signs of Bing anywhere.

Not to sound harsh, but what we be the point? Is this just to make sure that it has Google and not Bing? Otherwise, I'm just not sure how this makes a difference. Regardless, it appears that it has Google anyway, so no "Droid" needed?

No, theres something about having a Droid device that makes me a just a little bit more proud of my device

No prob. I was just wondering.

I see the "Droid" phones getting more advertising and backing in promotions from Verizon compared to the none "Droid" phones.

It has been commented on other forums that Verizon may back off on the "Droid" use for just the high end phones since the Droid moniker is so connected to Android on Verizon in general. If so, no biggie I bet the bulk of their advertising is going to be for LTE and the iPhone.

I'm gonna say no because the higher spec phone in the Bionic will bear the name and will be released a month later.

That's true. I wonder if any of the HTC duo-cores that come later will have it. I'm really excited to find out what HTC has to offer with their selections. I'm not really duo-core crazy, I'm just curious how much faster, better, stronger etc, they're going to be than my Dinc. I am so satisifed with this device. My only want is a larger screen. I think I'm just mainly wanting to see what new abilities these new duo-cores will bring with them. I'm also hoping that once we've an os that optimizes their tech how they'll improve battery life.
