Interesting article. Talks about how sales of the Droid have beat expectations in the states. I pre-ordered Sept. 30th here in Germany. If it looks like I won't be getting my N900 until 2010, I might start seeing what all the hype is about with the Droid.

A question, when was the Droid announced and how long did it take from the announcement to it actually hitting retail stores for consumers to buy? Interested in the difference with Nokia and the N900.
