Android phone first impressions

I got a new android phone a few days ago! It’s the motorola droid from Verizon wireless.

My favorite app right now is ConnectBot, an SSH client. Using my phone to remote control servers is awesome! I started a transfer at work, then checked the status and did a mount and reboot from my couch at home!

I’m typing on WordPress 1.01 for Android right now. It seems to work really well and I like the interface, but it’s really hard to type on this keyboard… It takes me almost 5 minutes for one paragraph. I like the keyboard from my lost blackberry curve a lot more; even though the keys were smaller, they were a lot easier to distinguish by touch, making typing a lot faster. I’m kind of getting the hang of this one now, but it’s still super slow and I’m burning up my battery by having the backlight on the whole time.

That’s it for now, I’ll look for some new apps to write about for next time.
