Motorola Droid with Google's GPS Applications

The brand Motorola has been synonymous with mobile phones for a long long time now. This company has not only lived up to its expectations but also has disappointed many a times. This enabled many of its competitors to overtake it. But Motorola, as you can say with champions, has not yet given up the fight. When Motorola came out the RAZR, it made everyone stand up and take notice. But unfortunately the party did not last long. Motorola couldn’t backup its RAZR with cool phones. As a result, the company’s popularity fell.

Now however, Motorola has made a comeback or rather say atleast attempted to. Its has slowly and steady gone through some major changes. Firstly, embracing the Google Android as the platform for its phones, then shedding off the weight of Windows Mobile and finally bringing some high end phones in the market.

With the DROID, Motorola has perhaps created its most attractive piece of technology till date. By forming an alliance with Verizon and Google, it is now a formidable player in the phone segment. With a big screen, fast speeds, full QWERTY keyboard and Facebook connectivity on the offering as some of the features, I think this phone is here to stay.

Well, if you thought that’s all, then heres something cooler. DROID comes loaded with Google’s 3D Maps Navigation in addition to other Google apps like GMail, GTalk, Search, Calender, Contacts and YouTube. Google’s 3D Maps Navigation is a mixture of satellite, traffic and hybrid maps with text-to-speech directions. You also get info on parking lots, ATM’s, gas stations, etc. By switching to the Google Street View you get turn by turn directions from your source point to your destination. The navigation is super fast; user friendly and cleanly laid out. The best part, that’s what I like, is that it’s completely free. A few glitches here and there, but overall very good.
