Hmm...100 people out of 8 million? I still don't buy the pre-fabricated hype.

Well it said "well over" 100 people as midnight approached and says nothing of how many people came in and bought the devices over the 2 hour event.

The width of the phone makes it a bit awkward for my medium sized hands to type fast. I am coming from a Curve since release so it will take a bit of adjusting. Virtual keyboard works great in both modes. Camera is great. Multitasking is fast. Only lag is when something installs which is obvious why there would be some. No lag when switching screens or apps. Browser is great.

I was hoping we'd be getting some more info on the Passion by now. It's been a while since we've received any new news. I was waiting on finding out the specs to that and when it was going to be released before I put down dollars for the Droid.

The only thing I didn't like about the Eris when I was testing out both phones was the build quality I'm sorry to say that Eris felt cheap in my hands another thing that I found was that the track ball feels to loose. I'm sure the passion will have better build quality

I just hope HTC passions build feels like a highend smartphone Like ma Droid. Sorry I just had to throw that one in there

I hope they let us know what other android devices are on the way I wanna make that leap to android, now if htc made a android phone with a hardware keyboard for verizon I'd be good, another thing I hope someone is working on a way to port sense ui to the droid that would be nice also.

I had got a dream to begin my own firm, but I didn't have enough amount of money to do this. Thank heaven my friend told to use the loans. So I used the term loan and made real my dream.
