Verizon Droid – A Month Later
As a followup to my mini-review.
The Droid is awesome at everything except being a phone. I don’t know if I hold it “wrong” (whatever the fuck that would mean), or the sensors suck, or the software sucks, or what. But it consistently hangs up on me, activates the dial pad, locks when I want it unlocked, unlocks when I want it locked, you name it.
If I want to get directions, it’s awesome. If I want to watch YouTube videos, it’s awesome. If I want to look something up online, read blog feeds, play a silly game or an NES game in emulation, text, it’s awesome.
So why does the phone suck so damn much?! I’d have thought someone else would mention this if it was a widespread issue. And I can’t really reproduce the problems…I keep on trying to change how I hold the phone to see if that helps. Does anyone have any insight into how the hell to use this phone as a phone?

I have a similar issue with my iphone, I constantly mute or hold people while I’m on the phone. Usually its not realized for a long time into the conversation either. Its just the nature of touchscreens.
That makes me feel better. But your misfortune usually makes me feel better.
