Will the Verizon Droid be a serious challenger for the iPhone's title of World's Sexiest Gadget? Motorola, Google and Verizon, who teamed up to deliver the Droid, clearly think so. An aggressive ad campaign targeting the iPhone's weak points, the iDon't ad mocks Apple's ads by listing the things that the iPhone can't do. The Verizon Droid is rumored to be as small or slightly smaller than the iPhone with a slide-out keyboard.
Implications - While it seems unimaginable that any phone would surpass the immense capabilities of the iPhone, the Droid's 5 megapixel camera, touchscreen, full keyboard and sleek, compact exterior are just a few of the futures that make it a prime competitor.
