We're excited to announce DROID by Motorola, the world's first Android 2.0-powered smartphone developed in partnership with Google and Verizon Wireless.

 

Developers will be very excited about the following features of DROID by Motorola:

 

 

  • The first device in the world powered by Android 2.0 (eclair)
  • Powered by a Cortex A8 processor with dedicated hardware acceleration for a quick and fluid graphics experience. This is part of a new processor family that can actually deliver up to three times the performance of a typical ARM11-based processor. DROID runs at 550 mhz.
  • Capacitive touch on a 3.7” WVGA display
  • 5 megapixel autofocus camera with dual LED flash and image stabilization.
