Just got my first real "smart" phone about 3 weeks ago. I moved from T-mobile (coverage area issues) to Verizon, and chose the Droid Eris.

I work in IT, at a cutting edge firm, and this phone is one of the most amazing machines I've ever had the priviledge to use. It has not yet replaced my need to carry a laptop around at work, but is so close to it, that I'm constantly looking for new ways to perform old tasks. Won't be too long when I can leave that 7 pound albatross at home.

Absolutely thrilled I made this move. loving every minute of my Droid. Only complaint is battery life. Could be longer. A full charge lasts not quite 24 hours.
