A positive note on Android

Last night we had some friends over for dinner and drinks, and I got my first hands on experience with the Motorola Droid and I must say it was the most impressive one yet.

First, the Droid is not near a bulky and ugly as the pictures I had seen lead me to believe. For whatever reasons I thought it was larger and thicker, but it was really quite nice.

Secondly, I've never seen such a responsive Android phone; in my experiences with the G1 and a recent HTC I was not impressed with the lag/sluggishness, but the Droid seemed spot on.

It’s great to see a good implementation of Android. I haven’t heard how the Google Nexus One is, but I have high hopes for Android being a good competitor to the iPhone and iPhone OS. Competition will (hopefully) make both stronger.
