Though after owning a HTC Hero for four days (had 2 both headphone jacks broke) I liked you could customize the device (though took hours to do so), multiple screens with widgets (Twitter, Facebook, Mail, Pandora & last.fm all controlled via widgets on phone's desktop) and the ability to run background apps, which allowed for real time updates of widgets mentioned.
Ultimately I returned both Hero's cause of issue with headphone jack and the thing ran so slow; booted up even slower. If this Droid fixes those issues I might take back iPhone (30 day trial now).
Well, I've been using HTC Hero for more than a month now and I usually spend about a hour or more a day browsing, and I found it ... fast. And the browser is great.
What's this with the boot time? I rebooted it once I think, since buying, and it was when I had to put another card on it temporally.
Well as noted there is a headphone issue with the Hero, I got two in Hero's in four days and had same headphone jack issue. For me having these types of devices connected my car stereo to listen INternet music services is very important, thus I couldn't keep Hero because it has headphone jack malfunction issue.
I liked a lot of things with it, but no doubt it's slow and laggy, as well the virtual keyboard felt clumsy comparative to the iPhone. Let's hope this Droid provides all the best things I liked about the Hero, while solving what I had issues with.
