"Corporate types with small fingers will find much to like in
Verizon's Android 2.2-based Motorola Droid Pro, says this eWEEK
review. Most business users, however, will have trouble with the
tiny keyboard, let alone the small screen, and would do better with
a BlackBerry.
"Motorola's Droid Pro -- which Verizon Wireless is now selling
for $180 after a $100 rebate with a two-year deal -- presents a
case study in smartphones that look great, feel great in the hand,
but whose user experience is wanting. That sums up the Droid Pro
hardware, which I will circle back to after covering the basics of
the device and what worked for me.
"Weighing at an industry average 4.73 ounces, the Droid Pro
(pictured) comes with a 1GHz processor and measures 4.7 inches
long, 2.4 inches wide, and about a half inch thick. The screen is a
compact 3.1-inch, HVGA 480 x 320 pixel display."
