Brand new member and Smart phone user...

[MartyG]

Hey guys...I'm a brand new member here and just picked up a Droid X & also picked up a Droid Incredible for my wife.
These are our 1st smart phones for each of us (funny, I'm kind of a techie geek, just never saw the need for one). Can you folks point us to a good resource, sticky for new users of the droid?
We really have no idea of the capabilities, best Apps, organizational abilities, etc.
Thanks in advance!

I've got a few resources for you to check out below. The first three are in the Droid X forum right here, the other is in the applications forum at the very top of the AC forums page.

First things first, you would most likely want to check out the Droid X Docs/FAQ's/Known Issues - Updated 7/27 - Please Read Before Posting topic made by Cory Streater. It is one of the stickies at the top of this forum.

The next topic is another sticky at the top of this forum called Tips and Tricks for the Droid X . Some really good info in there as well.

The next is a regular topic on this forum, it is usually on the first page, moreso towards the top of the topics. Post Your Droid X Screens!! by terpitude71. It has a ton of screenshots of other DX user's screens. Most of them are kind enough to tell us the apps and widgets they have used and provide their wallpapers to those who have asked. I got a TON of useful info about what is good and what people use for apps and widgets in this topic.

The last topic is in the Android Applications forum as a sticky called Your Top 5 Android Applications? by Jeremy Sikora. People sound off on their favorite apps here, really gives a good sense of what is good and what people are using.

Hope that helps! Welcome to the community, hope you and your wife enjoy your android devices!
