Default Best Droid Phone?
I'mma fix'n to get a smart phone and have decided to get a Droid. But which one? I'm leaning towards the X because of the much larger expandable storage. The device will be doing multiple-duty, including MP3 player and doc reader.

What carrier?

If you're talking Verizon, the Droid X is the best currently. The Incredible is great too if you don't mind the smaller screen. You might also check out the Samsung Captivate. It's a 4inch SUPER AMOLED screen (X is 4.3 and Incredible is 3.7) and it's beautiful. The GPU is also the best on the market and it has a very fast ARM A8 processor. If you want to wait a little longer and want a phone with a keyboard then this new HTC is pretty awesome.

A 1500(the new HTC phone) quadrant score(android benchmark) is smoking fast. My X with 2.2 is typically between 1400 and 1492. The Evo 4G/Incredible runs in the high 1200/low 1300 range for comparison.

I'm on AT&T which I've never personally had that much trouble with, but considering moving to Verizon at the same time, in part depending on how much terminating my ATT contract would cost.

Noted.

Can I bring my number to Verizon. I've always hated cell phones, so I still don't know much about them.

I would say get a ATT nexus one...It is the best phone i have ever had. It is uncrapified even compared to the Verizon android phone and you will get all of the updates first



but if you want to go to Verizon then get the droid 2. Its faster then the droid x and all of the droid phones can hold up to 32gb Micro SD cards

The Droid 2 isn't faster - exact same GPU and CPU
