Wow, I put this poll up just to hope to get a dozen responses, thanks for all the replies and the votes guys! I think it's really interesting to point out that so many OG droid users are still holding out for a phone that's as close to an OG droid as possible.
Myself, like many of you, are due for an upgrade (actually have been due for one for over a month now) but haven't been able to find one that really appeals to me until now (the SGS2 looked awesome but VZW passed on it).
The second, and even more impressive point to note is that most of us, especially being on this forum, care about the open source nature and heavy user development of Android. Here we have a phone that's just as open as the OG Droid. Unlocked Bootloader, no bloatware to speak of, and completely rootable/ROMable, etc. That's what keeps me so excited for this phone.
Do you guys agree?
