Ahhhh, the web is alive with the sound of Froyo. At least it is if you’re a Droid X owner. The long awaited updated is almost here and we’ve received confirmation that tomorrow, Wednesday the 22nd, is the big day.
If you still don’t believe us, and quite frankly we can’t say we blame you for as long as it’s taken, just do a search on the internets and you’ll see post after post after post detailing Verizon’s acknowledgement that Droid X is getting Froyo starting tomorrow.
With more states adopting mobile phone and texting laws for drivers, and with our incessant need to multitask and get things done quickly, Bluetooth headsets continue to gain in popularity. The trouble is finding a high performance, high quality headset that will fit your specific needs.

Has the long awaited Froyo update finally arrived for Motorola Droid X owners? The on again off again rumor mill has been saying so for going on three months now, but still nothing. Motorola and Verizon said we could expect the upgrade by the end of summer, which is now only days away.
The page on droiddoes.com looks like a formal announcement for the Droid X release of Froyo. Unlike other information that appears to have been leaked, this page is open to the public and contains a link to another informational page within the Verizon owned Droid Does site.
Motorola’s Droid 2 is one of the first Android phones to ship with Froyo 2.2 pre-loaded and is a noticeably improved version of the original Droid. It’s the best phone with a keyboard out there at the time of this review and can be compared to a Droid X minus the keyboard and a smaller screen. A 3.7 inch 854×480 TFT LCD capacitive touch screen, 1-GHz TI OMAP processor nearly double the original Droid’s 550MHz processor. The phone comes with 8GB of internal memory and an 8GB microSD Card, expandable up to 32GB. Changing the microSD card requires first taking out the battery which was a little inconvenient. Network coverage in the areas tested was excellent, over the course of 2 weeks, I did not have a single dropped call
We’ve made the announcement, and by now many of you already know that we launched our YouTube page last week. It is our desire to provide more content and to cover topics that interest our readers in the format that appeals to them the most. That is why we have established a presence here on our website (www.DViceNews.com) on Facebook (www.Facebook.com/DViceNews), on Twitter (www.Twitter.com/DViceNews) and finally, on YouTube (www.YouTube.com/DViceNews).
As many of you know, DViceNews has recently launched our YouTube channel at www.YouTube.com/DViceNews. Our desire is to use YouTube as a way of entertaining, having some fun, and putting out product reviews that give our readers and viewers the chance to connect visually with some of the newest and most exciting tech products on the market.
With that in mind, it is very fitting that the first two videos we filmed to kick off the channel were an unboxing and now a full video review of the Motorola Droid 2 from Verizon. Our friends at Verizon were kind enough to provide us with a review model of their newest Android phone. In short, we were impressed with what we saw.
