Yes, you just have to turn on the option to allow installation of apps from unknown sources.

Can you give more info? Where are you typing? Is it all the time? Are you using the normal keyboard or the symbol keyboard?

amunger85 This really feels like a "skeleton" version of the app. I'm sure they wanted to get it out as soon as possible. I'm sure there is a paid version coming, since the title or this one has "free" in it, and the pop up adds come up so often. I give it less than two weeks before a pretty...

Got two free droid 2's as part of best buys free phone fridays. New seasonal employee helped us and recommend we get ATK from the market. I just stared blankly and told my fiance to not even think about getting it. All the employees there were either installing it or suggesting it.

Woohoo! What's better than a DX hooked up to TV? GOOGLE TV right plastered right there in all it's glory. Bring on the HD internet, up-sized, with a side of fries.

Success!! My noob topic got commented on by "the man". I feel like I've achieved something. And as an added bonus, I learned a lot of very technical information that I'll never use but I still feel is valuable. And still no mom jokes - FTW!

I *think* I'm ok with root for now. Maybe once I fully grasp everything I'll change my mind about the need for roms. And its good to see no mothers were brought up, although schizrade is doing his best to start something :)

That's kinda what I'm wondering about; is getting root and the ability to use custom roms equally difficult?

Thanks! I'm at work and limited to what sites I can browse, so I'm limited to my poor, overworked and underperforming BB. Is the locked bootloader what prevents (impedes?) the device from being rooted, or just from loading a custom ROM? I'm under the impression it just keeps you from loading...

Don't shoot me, I know there's info out there but it's a little much for an Android noob. From what I'm getting, the X can (eventually) be rooted, just can't have custom ROMs bc the bootloader is locked, right? So basically, once someone roots the thing, you can remove bloatware, use wireless...

And its $199 with 2 year contract. No hassle with the mail in rebate.

You can use your NE2 at Walmart, you can also do the early upgrade as well, but the guy said you have to have an email or letter saying you're eligible for the "smartphone upgrade". The one where if you are eligible for an upgrade anytime this year you can upgrade now to the Droid.

Droid X is best.. It's got the most advanced hardware on a phone yet. Its got the best software platform out there, open-source as well. Its practically a mini-tablet you can make calls from.

I doubt the X won't be able to be rooted... It seems like that's one of the attractive features of Droid/Android. Does anybody have a good idea if it really won't be rootable?
