iPhone, Droid–get ready for Google domination…Showdown to begin in 2010
What do we know? It’s an HTC phone – probably the Passion, a distant cousin to the beautiful HD2 – with large touchscreen. It’s GSM unlocked and everyone at Google has one so whatever the super secret specs are, they won’t stay super secret for long.
But what if Google starts to sell this thing? This is “a big deal” on the level of Neo learning Kung Fu in The Matrix. This means Google is making hardware.

Tech blog GigaOm has received a Motorola Droid for testing, Android This Week: Droid Lands on Verizon; Google Adds Navigation. The GPS navigation being introduced with Android 2.0 platform sounds very impressive and like a potential business threat to persoanl GPS navigation companies like Tom Tom and Garmin.
Verizon, is not putting all it’s eggs in one basket with the Droid and there is rumor of the second phone, Droid Eris, they are going to launch with Android platform–this one is supposed to have a lower price tag for the cost conscience consumer (which is every body these days, right?)
Also this week, a few details about another Android phone emerged. The Droid Eris by HTC is expected to be Verizon’s second phone with the OS. The Eris lacks a keyboard and appears to be a more budget-friendly phone. If rumors prove accurate, the Eris will be released shortly after the Droid, so there won’t be long to wait.

TechCrunch is noting that we should remember, today October 28 is supposed to be the day Droid arrives (that explains the creepy computer voices I keep hearing–or does it…)
I don’t know how you could forget, considering we’ve been posting Droid updates just about every day, but according to our calculations, tomorrow is October 28th: the day Droid drops. Now, we don’t expect the Droid to set the mobile world on its head exactly, but we’re pretty sure that it’s going to be the premiere Android device — until the next premiere device comes out.
In light of this announcement (or soon to be announcement) I would like to point out that the iPhone now has video editing software for the latest hardware versions that shoot video–ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!! For those of you who don’t know me personally, I went to film school in the late 90’s (the bleeding edge of dawn of the digital video revolution). Having worked through the evolution of equipment and software over the years, tools like the ability to shoot, edit and post video all within a hand held device–that is also your phone, excite and amaze me.

Just read on Mashable that Google is in production on their own Droid phone that is anticipated to be open and low-cost (I think the low-cost part is up to interpretation, $50 bucks would be cool–just in case they’re listening).
“If talk of the Google phone plan is true, the entrance of a unlocked, low-cost, Web-friendly touchscreen device will probably undercut other Android (
) phone efforts by players like Motorola, Samsung and Dell.”

I saw a commercial for the new Droid phone yesterday (of course at the time I had no idea what the commercial was about). The Droid is a new phone coming to market on the Verizon network and was created by Verizon, Motorola and Google–it is lauded as the first serious competition for the iPhone–given my network issues with AT&T’s service, if the Droid has the same tools as the iPhone it is definitely going to warrant a look from me.

Tech Crunch has a nice write and links to video.
