New Droid Pro

I don't actually understand all the concern regarding the Droid Pro 'obsoleting' the existing Droid phones. The purported dual band global operation might be a major factor for some people but probably no factor at all for many others. I haven't seen anything addressing the expected display resolution or technology and no details on how they plan to support a faster processor without negatively impacting battery life. Also nothing addressing whether it might be an LTE phone, although since it has been suggested that initial LTE phones will run CDMA and LTE independently this would seem to make it have to be a 'tri band' phone, probably not the best place to start. And is there actually anything definitive regarding the Droid Pro having a front facing camera and/or keyboard?

If Motorola was to announce that the Droid Pro will incorporate some significantly higher resolution, say 1280x720 to view native 720p content, and/or higher contrast display or maybe some new technology that significantly improves battery life then I might consider that a significant improvement. If not, then other than the dual CDMA/GSM aspect it seems to more be something that bridges the gap between the Droid 2 or Incredible and the Droid X while including a few incremental upgrades. So something that would likely be very popular but not necessarily a significant leap forward in functionality or performance.
 
are you kidding me? I got the Incredible on day one, they announced the Droid X right after. Took INC back and got the X on day one. Now they are announcing a GLOBAL DROID! I can't deal with this one after another BS. Release a phone, let it marinate so that the people that bought it feel like they have the best smartphone on the market for AT LEAST A MONTH! I know advanced in technology shouldn't upset me, but I traded my Global Storm 2 for the X and while i love it, I made a trade off. It just pisses me off that we keep getting banged with new phones and/or announcements back to back.

This is quite selfish and self serving. Who cares how quickly Verizon releases phones. As long as you are happy with what you have, why would it make a difference? Choice is good.
 
The OP made me chuckle. First of all you have different companies releasing Android devices, HTC, Motorola, etc. etc. so yeah, you'll be seeing a lot of Android devices coming out through out the years.

I'm sorry that you felt like you were hot shit, thinking you had a top notch phone for people to envy you only to find out a better phone is coming out a few months later.

Nobody cares.

I had a Treo 755p for the longest time, even after the iPhone and the G1 was out, I was still rockin' the Treo, why? because it was a phone that worked for me, what it did it did well, it wasn't about having the hottest phone, it was about having a phone that got the job done.

I'm going back to the Droid Pro and I plan to stick with the Droid Pro for some time, I think HTC is releasing a 4G phone for Verizon and you know what? I could care less.
 
Let me just call Motorola and ask them to stop releasing new devices so that the OP can feel he has the latest/greatest for at least a month..........bwahahahahahhahahahaha.
