That Phonescoop article sounds like they misinterepeted the rep about the Droid 4 and Spectrum getting global updates.

agree completely. i want a well built sold feeling phone and the droid line is that. the nexus feels cheap, great screen but cheap.

“Note: This product uses a non-removable battery. The battery should only be replaced by a Motorola-approved service facility. Any attempt to remove or replace your battery may damage the product and void your warranty.”

FAIL!

And I really wanted to want this phone. Let’s see… I want a physical keyboard, want to stay on Verizonl, would like to be able to take advantage of 4G if it ever gets near my house… Guess I’ll have to see if I can stand Touchwhiz (see what I did there?) on the Strat. I know it’s been rooted, and I think I saw where CWM is available. Hold up seems to be the LTE radio. sigh… I really love my OG.

But they don’t have physical keyboards. Period. I will never buy a smart phone that doesn’t have one. I am still using and loving my (rooted) Droid 2 Global after upgrading from my D1. I will upgrade to whatever the best physical keyboard phone is when my NE2 comes up in September. Hopefully, it will be the Droid 5 by then the way Moto has been pushing out phones lately. I would hesitate to buy a locked phone without a known root method, but locked bootloaders alone affect my interest very little.

Maybe because most people don’t care at all about locked bootloaders and a decent number of people would prefer a keyboard?

I don’t understand why anyone would buy this or any Motorola product especially with how they’re dealing with the locked bootloaders. Lets ignore our customers and hopefully they’ll just quit. My biggest mistake was buying the bionic..I don’t even use it I bought my friends tbolt and the bionic is now a 300.00 paperweight . Don’t waste 250.00 on this when the galaxy nexus and rezound are out and clearly better spec’d phones. This whole situation with the bootloaders just turned me away from scamorola for good.
