No interest in waiting until November 6th to fight the lines at yourlocal Verizon Wireless store? No interest in waiting for a $100 mail-inrebate that may or may not ever arrive? Best Buy Mobile has your back.The big box retailer has announced that it's taking pre-orders for theMotorola Droid--the world's first Android 2.0 device--right now, andit's probably worth your while to shop here versus at Verizon.

Why? For starters, you can walk right in and get your name on the listnow, with no waiting necessary. This secures your place in line to geta phone that'll undoubtedly have more demand than any other phone thatVerizon has offered in years. Also, the $100 mail-in rebate that'll beattached at Verizon is nowhere to be found at Best Buy Mobile. In otherwords, you'll walk out of the store paying just $199 (with a 2-yearVerizon contract) rather than $299 and being forced to wait for $100back. Pretty good deal if you ask us.



So, are you anxious to get your hands on the Droid? Tired of waitingfor the iPhone on Verizon? Without a doubt, this phone has the biggestchance to finally be that mythical "iPhone killer," but will it live upto the hype?

I like it, it has good specs. The innards rival what's in an iPhone and the Android OS is rockin' too.

It's just that pesky Verizon thing,......

They don't have service worth a crap in my neck of the woods.
