What's the deal with the crowd-sourced walking traffic reporting that is based on the DROID phones reporting your location (GPS) in increments? Anyone heard about that? Supposedly the wording is in the agreement that no one reads. Apparently they have been trying to do it on the iPhone too but cannot since apps cannot run in the background. I dunno as I have a BB, and I am not switching up any time soon.

I picked up a Droid last week. Didn't notice this thread until now. =) I love it. Works great when I go Geocache.

Anyone else running cutom firmware on their droid (droidmod 1.0, hacked 2.1, etc)? I run droidmod, and I love the fact that I can overclock and tether my phone

FYI - if you've got an Android phone, there are 3 settings for browsing the web:

1. Mobile
2. iPhone
3. Desktop - I use this one and I don't get the annoying mobile version of anything. There are a couple of pages that I have used with decent mobile versions (the bus believe it or not) but most sites are weak, so I use the desktop setting, works awesome with i-club, NASIOC etc.

I got a Droid Eris and I love it - though it's a tad too slow for me so when the HTC Incredible comes out; best believe I'm getting on that.

isohunt is screwed up. I'm wondering if you can walk me through some of this. I really need the full version of pdanet. I guess the original download of the free version times out and you can't access secure sites... like yahoomail and gmail. Which is a major issue for me and I just don't have $30 for a phone ap right now.

need pdanet full version really bad!
