but nice device......and its dual core,
Why wouldn't it have cut/paste? Androids have always had cut/paste. I'm not sure where this was coming from--did you confuse it with iOS (where they only recently got cut/paste) or with Windows Phone 7 (where they took away cut/paste after updating from Windows Mobile)?

My N900 has full keyboard support, full mouse support, a large screen, can transfer files, can do all the srtuff I want, and it has the advantage that it uses my regular wireless keyboard and my favourite wireless mouse. Best of all, there is no physical connection to break or need unpocketing.

It's called VNC.
Full keyboard support... not really supported out-of-the box, mind you. You need to hack it into doing it, wireless keyboard and all. Full mouse support... again, not supported, hacked. Large screen? Where? Uhhh, No. hahah About the ONLY good argument you made is that it does all the srtuff [sic] you want.

HDMI output versus composite. Why would you switch to the N8? Just to prove a point?
It would appear that our friend attempted to twist the conversation to suit his arguments and dismissed the argument he had actually made. I didn't bother responding. I was laughing to hard each time I looked at it to respond anyway. Dear, oh dear. It was an incredible maneuver that deserves a bit of comedic credit, wouldn't you agree?

Oops.. I think you made a mistake. The Droid didn't disappoint by any measure. Last time I checked, it was what saved Motorola from performing a flaming nosedive in the market over the past year and it's still managing to perform quite well even compared to many new Android handsets. Maybe I missed something, though. Where did you hear about how this Droid was disappointing? Disappointing to whom? Citation, please?
