n810 vs. Droid X (don't laugh)
 

So I finally caved and bought a Droid X, mainly because Mog.com did something to their stinky Flash interface that caused all playback to stall on "buffering".

So what do I think? For a gearhead like me, the n810 still kicks the Droid's *ss in terms of raw functionality. None of the Android email apps can even begin to hold a candle to Claws mail. And no, it's not limiting to have a "desktop" interface as opposed to a touch screen. Navigation is so much faster using the keyboard and scroll pad.

Maemo Mapper even compares favorably to the nav app on the Droid. I mean, it shows speed and altitude and a compass! :-)

Also, the commercial nature of the Android app store is perturbing. I installed an imap client and suddenly I was faced with a banner proclaiming that Laurie69 wanted to talk to me. I can totally see the potential to F up your device if you aren't careful.

The Droid's camera is amazing, video playback is amazing... Everthing is fast, of course, with a processor that's at least 3 times faster.

And I will probably change my tune slightly as I become more familiar with my Droid and root it -- I feel like I'm flying blind without a terminal and logs to peruse.

But I honestly do find my four n810s to be more functional in many respects.

Oh, and the Droid is actually a phone. ;-)

I'm looking at the Droid X, too, so my big question for you is -- how usable is it without a hw keyboard and stylus? My carpool buddy swears by his HTC EVO with swype, but I can't seem to get past the fact that I like having my qwerty and the ability to finely point at stuff with a stylus (rather than my fat fingers).

So.. your opinion?

I don't have great experience, but from playing with my brothers Droid X, finger touch screen and keyboard is fairly decent. It was finger friendly and easy to use. But granted I have only played with it for about 10 minutes, not long enough to run into problems with it.

So why did you get a Droid X instead of a Droid 2?
