Verizon Announces the Motorola Droid Pro

[mjforte]

This is not the Droid I'm looking for. Where's the superphone? I'm still hoping we'll see it the end of this year or the beginning of next year.

I am not a fan of the keyboard. I am sure others like me with big hands love the designs of the droid and the droid 2 with the qwerty keyboard being the length of the phone instead of the width. It makes typing so much easier. I hope that the pictures of the possible superphone stay with the design of the keyboards. Also the screen seems really small for Motorola phone.

not very attractive but looks like something i would get since it doesnt have to slide open =]

Does anybody know the resolution of the screen?

3.1-in. TFT (320 x 480)

good move by motorola and vzw to compete with blackberry. It gonna be a nice smart phone for business customers wanting android. I am sure not to many of droid pro users will care about rooting. With that said that phone is not for me.

That Droid should be called "Droich" or Drixi ..To me it resembles the Berry Torch or the palm Pixi way too much..That is and UGLY phone IMHO It looks like a prototype as well cuz it looks like and unfinished product as well..

This is actually a good looking phone. A business users dream, blackberry style keyboard with all of the functionality of the Android system. I was definitely looking for something a little more "KAAPOW" for the end of the year, but I am happy that no super phone is being released being i have the Droid X. It makes sense for Verizon not to release anything great if the expectation is to have LTE in 30+ markets by years end. This way next year we will see some extraordinary phones.

i wish MOTOROLA would quit putting the ANDROID OS on every phone it puts put!!!! NOW this PHONE is hella UGLY and looks TOOOOO much like a blackberry.

This one is going to need a Forum of it's own :wink:

I think its a good design and will serve a lot of people really well. I would have liked to see a higher resolution screen.

I am glad to see these announcements. It looks like D2 and DX owners can rest easy for the remainder of the year and we can all patiently await the arrival of LTE and a phone truly worth upgrading for. I guess all the folks on the fence about getting a D2 or DX should just jump on board at this point, or wait for another year for some serious new phones.

I didn't think motorola was silly enough to make their own current premier devices (DX and D2) look outdated in just a month or two. Glad to see that was the case.

Seriously though..this will be JUST the phone that some people wanted. It isn't for you hardcore media viewer guys but for some people it will do exactly what they need.

All of the other phones in this announcement seem like just a way of offering lots of different alternatives for little kids to look at when shopping for a phone..just to really get all of the non android phones out of verizon stores or something haha.

Had to really laugh at this post!!! Friggin' hilarious!!!!!:rofl3:

I think it's great. Who cares if it is the phone many of us want. It will sell for alot of corporate users that love their BB's. Moto has done the D2, the X, and now this. They are rolling out phones much faster than HTC and choice is not a bad thing. I won't be getting this one either, but that doesn't mean it won't help bring android market share up even more.
