Motorola Droid: A Promising iPhone Challenger [View article]
Here is the quandry - will Verizon cripple the Droid with all the Verizon "our way or the highway" demands, or will the open Android "anything goes" model be running on the droid?
If the device is crippled, it becomes another blah iPhone wannabe.
If the device is not crippled, Verizon loses several potential revenue streams (tv, gps, ringtones, etc.).
Until I see proof otherwise, I'm betting that Verizon will not give up those secondary revenue streams, relegating Droid to also-ran status.
