Droid Sales and the Android Explosion2009-11-17 11:14 by DanielaTags: Motorola, Droid, iPhone, mobile
The Motorola Droid is doing more than just bashing the iPhone - it's also smashing the ceiling when it comes to mainstream Android appeal. A full 250,000 people snatched up Droids during the phone's first week in stores, some newly released data suggests. That's four times the number of launch-week sales estimated for the myTouch 3G, which had previously been considered the fastest-selling Android device.
