Plus, this will be consistent with their track-record of one-upping iphone's specs.

Looks like they are that daft.

I'm to assume it's not a European thing then?

Its not an American thing either. It is NOT acceptable fashion to wear your phone on your belt.

Other Americans think you are just as big a douchebag/idiot as our European counterparts do.

This is coming from one American to another.

hrmf, why did google make phone a required element of getting compatibility approval for pre-2.1? i would like to see a about 5" android device (but that can access marketplace and certain other stuff) without the added cost of the phone, as i have a nicely working phone thank you very much.

still, these devices are heading towards whats been talked about in sci-fi for some time.

Google didn't make it. Motorola did

but google have the compatibility requirements for access to marketplace and google services. And so they have a say in what kind of device gets made (unless one feel like having a chinese pmp that basically uses android as a marketing buzzword for their underpowered hardware).

Yeah but Google can't stop them from making a phone that isn't compatible with 2.2

while true, the lack of market or google services apps would be a near death sentence. Especially as many high profile android apps are only available via marketplace.

When I played with Droid X, there was a Nexus One nearby and I thought the resolution looked similar. Except for the brightness and size, I couldn't tell any difference in resolution compared with N900's screen.

But since the screen is much bigger than N900's, the resolution could indeed be a step higher.
