Verizon/Droid BOGO sale is Eris only. Ends Monday December 7th.
In what can be called a small letdown, that Verizon/Droid/Eris BOGO offer that floated out of GS late yesterday was a tad premature. Verizon is having a BOGO sale for Droids. There’s just one small catch: it is not the Moto Droid but the Droid Eris. (I can already see how this whole Droid line/naming scheme is going to get hairy). The real terms of the deal are :
- “Buy any Moto Droid or Droid Eris and receive a free Droid Eris.
Hmm, I can’t argue with that! The Eris is still a mighty fine phone. Oh wifey…

Cancelling your cellphone contract use to come with a hefty fee of anywhere from $175 up to $200+. The carriers justified this fee by highlighting how customers buying subsidized phones and then canceling their contracts was killing their checkbooks. Then a revelation happened last year — pro-rated cancellation fees starting at the same [...]

That nifty Android device that pranced around here yesterday is nothing but a poser. Fake. Impostor. The device itself was pretty sleek looking. Sadly it just won’t be. Sadness is overwhelming at this point I’m sure. Don’t feel too bad. In another month we’ll find some other gadget [...]

Remember that HTC Touch.B we talked about a couple days ago, eagerly anticipating the (as we hoped) Android goodness it was too bring? Well, sorry to break it to you but the shipping OS won’t be Android. Heck, it won’t even come with Windows Mobile either. Instead, MobiFrance says that it will [...]
