Quick Take: Verizon Droid and Google Android 2A few months back, my wife surprised me by announcing her interest in the then as-yet-unreleased Verizon Droid smart phone. She surprised me further a few weeks later by trucking over to the local Verizon Wireless store on the day the device was released and purchasing one. I was on a trip at the time, and while she’s obviously a fully-functioning adult, my wife has little to no interest in technology, so this was unusual. She had been using a sad excuse for a phone that couldn’t even be charitably called a feature phone; in fact, the Verizon salesperson treated my wife like an Amish farmer based almost solely on the age of her previous phone. My wife found this both slightly condescending and wildly funny.
