I think the OG Motorola Droid is THE phone to have: Wonderful keypad with the buttons in the right places, has a nice heft to it that gives confidence, Froyo is a fine operating system that doesn't have any frills and cruft. It can run hot from time to time depending on what the phone is doing, but it's manageable. I just love the original vision that Google had for Android with that phone. It feels like the smart people involved in that original design have long since departed and a lot of other people spoiled the pot overthinking the next revs afterwards.

I always think of Louis CK when I'm picking up my OG Droid - how amazing this "outdated" technology is in our amazing world. Nothing has convinced me yet that I need more. I've felt 4G and OLED but it doesn't really matter that much. I can't wait 3 more seconds here and there.

Here's my mini review of the Droid 4 and why I didn't upgrade: http://mikebaas.org/writings/Technology/CellPhones/droid_4_r...
