    Car Window Mount

    I purchased the car mount thru Verizon and found it to be lacking the cigarette lighter adapter. The options were to buy a full car charger (with cord) or just the small stub adapter. Either way, the total price exceeded that option at Amazon of the entire kit (with the rapid charger). I...

    Home Launcher app comparisons

    I bought the original Moto Droid on day one and have been running Home ++ as my launcher almost since the beginning. I haven't paid attention to more recent Launcher offerings. As I get ready to shift to the Droid 3, I have been looking at Home Launchers that are available now. Launcher Pro...

    Backing Up Droid

    Another vote for MyBackup Pro. I upgraded to the pro version last Thursday and ended up having to get a new phone two days later. The restore worked great. My timing was fortuitous.

    Great timing. I lost a cover on New Year's Eve.

    free 3 day weather widget?

    I have been using Weather Widget - Free. It has a decent 2x2 widget that shows a 3-day forecast. I don't use dxtop but don't know why it wouldn't work.

    home++ and battery

    I have been running Home++ for over 3 weeks with no battery issues. Check settings/about phone/battery use to see what is causing the battery drain.

    Do HOME REPLACEMENTS slow the phone down?

    I think it is definitely worth installing a home replacement. Some may be faster than others but the benefits and features of the home replacements are well worth giving them a try.

    open home or home++

    I ran Panda for a while but it was resource intensive and definitely slowed things down. Even when using a task killer I sometimes had delays in making a call or downloading from the market. I have been using Home++ for a few weeks now. It is much faster. I might like some themes and icon...

    Seidio releases extended 2600 mAh battery

    No way would I put this on my phone. Battery life has not been enough of an issue to go for this. Better solutions will come eventually.

    Do you wish you would have waited for the Nexus 1?

    Very happy with my Droid. Definitely the best option on Verizon.

    Sudden Battery Power Drop?

    I did see a thread on a battery issue on the Home++ forum page. The notations in that forum imply that Home++ is an issue but the timing of both gives at least the possibility of being related. I run Home++ almost exclusively and have not had this problem. Here is the link...

    I never realized...

    I have been using the turn-by-turn voice navigation since the beginning. It has been flawless so far. Easy to use and effective in re-routing after purposeful wrong turns. I have used it in multiple cities without problems. My wife has a Magellan and the Droid is every bit as good for...

    Is Android a mentality?

    I'm not sure of the reason for the level of high quality participation in this forum, but it has been impressive.
