It's the local coffee house against Starbucks
The Droid X is going to be the best phone of the year because it's the first phone that, instead of chasing the success of other phones, it stands alone as a solid peace of technology to be appreciated as its own. It's loaded with features and software that the tech-savvy and the grungy technology underground, and that the every day user can appreciate, not some watered down "smart" phone. It's not a phone that's built around sleekness and simplicity that is shipped to serve only a few purposes and refuses to allow growth, its a phone designed for the people who like choices and open source and the idea of freedom, not being squashed under Apple's big thumb. This isn't the first phone to have this opportunity, but this is the first phone that people can feel confident about switching too without losing the regular smartphone features, and gaining a lot more.
It's going to show people the phone world outside of Apple's cookie cutter!
Neo's about to free us from the Matrix! (Just saw that movie again, so I had that on my mind).
Droid does, Apple doesn't. Nuff' said.
