New phone features search

[camattern]

Greetings,

Looking for some advice on a replacement for my Droid2 here, I will be eligible for an upgrade to my current Droid2 in June and can move to a new carrier in October so if any suggestion is not available on Verizon I am open to moving. The features I am interested in (in order of importance) are listed below:

1. Global usage: able to operate on different carriers when I travel, I have been satisfied with my wife's Droid2 Global in this matter.
2. Dual (or greater) core count
3. CPU speed of 1.2 GHz or more
4. 1 GB RAM or greater
5. Physical keyboard
6. Laptop style docking station availability
7. HDMI output
8. Ability to mount and unmount external USB storage without a reboout
9. Physically tough, water resistant would be nice but I realize that if I get my physical keyboard this is somewhat limited

Looking forward to you information and opinions,
Chuck

really sounds like you know your own answer the Droid 4 is in your cards i believe

The DROID4 sounds good but I am concerned about how they will eventually implement GSM, I have had really good luck with buying a local SIM card for my wife's DROID2 Global rather than paying the Verizon version of remote voice and data. what I have read spo far sounds like a software solution rather than a SIM card option. Does anyone know how they will enable GSM? I wasn't aware that there was a docking station but now that I have taken a better look I see that you are correct, thanks!
