Want an android phone :/
I kind of saw this coming..
I love my droid. I was a big apple fan until I was given my phone as a gift, now I've switched sides.

these aren't the (an)droids you're looking for.
Still haven't gotten around to getting a smartphone....
whoa this is great news

Most of them just got it because of the Droid's logo
Heh, microsoft is going down.
Only android
Only hardcore !
