The Droid is the fourth Android-based smartphone from I\u2019ve had the chance to test out during the past 10 months and I must say, there\u2019s a certain sameness to all of Verizon\u2019s Droids. So it\u2019s the details that distinguish them from one another. It\u2019s sort of like if Apple has four different size iPhones.<\/p>\n

Motorola\u2019s Droid 2 is the next rev of of the original and first Droid that entered the world Nov. 6. It has a faster processor, a TI OMAP 1 Ghz processor versus a 550 MHz Arm Cortex A8 processor 550 in the original Droid. Frankly, I never found speed an issue in either Droid.<\/p>\n

Verizon\u2019s Aug. 10 press release introducing Droid 2 has but a mere paragraph and a half where it details the differences between Droid and Droid 2. Here\u2019s the verbatim:<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the new DROID 2, we\u2019ve taken a big leap forward from the original DROID,\u201d said Bill Ogle, chief marketing officer of Motorola Mobile Devices and Home Business. \u201cWe listened to consumers and are providing an even more robust experience built on Android 2.2 that includes a new keyboard, increased processing power, Adobe Flash Player 10.1 (that\u2019s cool for viewing web sites the way they were meant to be seen \u2013 TDR) and 3G Mobile HotSpot capabilities to send, access and share information even quicker than before.\u201d<\/p>\n

DROID 2\u2019s super-slim design helps customers e-mail, text and tweet with ease. DROID 2 offers a redesigned symmetrical keyboard with raised keys for more responsive typing to push out notes and status updates.\u201d<\/p>\n
