The Droid allows you to set up your desktop in any way. For example, on my desktop, I have an icon for Tracy, a weather widget that alerts me for severe weather, and a task manager to help prolong the battery.
Tracy has an application (DROID MUNI) that alerts her about the next arrival for any Muni bus in the city.
"I lost my Droid!" Ever lost your phone but couldn't find it, because the phone was set to silent? This application allows you to text your Droid from another phone. The text message sets the Droid to loud and begins to ring. Genius!
Other ingenious apps include Shop Savvy, Ring Droid, Visual Voicemail, and Mobile Banking.
So, despite being labeled as "always plugged in," I am loving the Droid. My Amish sister should join the club.
