<div>I have the DNA, and while i love the device i hate
the stock HTC Sense experience. however after unlocking,
rooting, and the like the custom rom i have is pretty
nice and allows me to get a more AOSP feel to the
device. And the development on getting Cyanogen to run
is very close, they just had a breakthrough yesterday
and got the radois to work, next is WiFi and audio i
think.<br>
<br>
</div>
Also the dust plug on the bottom will come off on you
pretty readily, and the speaker on minimum volume is
actually quite loud still.<br>
<div><br>
that's enough of the bad.<br>
<br>
The good. the screen resolution is the best i have seen
in a handheld device ever. it is large without feeling
clunky (its actually quite comfortable to hold and work
with, and it is very fast. The battery i get an average
of 12-14 hours of use out of the device with medium
heavy load, and more with light load. the sound with
beats enabled sounds very good, to the point i can hear
the difference in lower quality streams now where
previous devices i could not. the camera is fast, and
very responsive. and the screen is amazing... yes i did
mention it twice. it is that nice.<br>
<br>
If you have any specific questions let me know. but i
like you dont play more than maybe one or two games, and
its mostly an internet device i can make calls on.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Side note SSH is a bit interesting, as you have more
screen real-estate to work with, but if you are not
careful you may need a magnifying glass to read the
screen, i suggest an ssh client like connect-bot that
will let you change your font size a bit.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>I chose this over the Note2, S3, and N4. While the N4
has all the cool development, the DNA was a nicer device
to use, physically. and i actually like the hardware
buttons so they are not actually eating up part of my
screen space.<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
I'm thinking about making the move to a
smart phone. I am looking at the DROID
DNA by HTC that Verizon is offering for
$199.<br>
<br>
I am interested in a smart phone because I
would like to use it to take pictures,
capture video, and edit video, so I can
manage my blog and social media. I might
even use it as a phone.<br>
<br>
As an example usage: I went to DMV about
a year ago to update my title after paying
off my car. I had to wait over an hour.
DMV charges for the service they provide.
I suspect the state has reduced the number
of people assisting customers due to
budget constraints. I also suspect that
the DMV turns a profit and if so that
money needs to be used to create a better
customer service experience. <br>
<br>
If I would have had a smart phone I could
have interviewed several people, uploaded
the video to YouTube.com, written an
article for my blog, added some tweets to
my twitter account, and updated my
Facebook page, all while waiting. <br>
<br>
This is an example as to why I want to
upgrade to a smart phone and what my
expectations are.<br>
<br>
I'd be interested in what your thoughts
might be about the DROID DNA, Verizon, and
how I expect to use the phone.<br>
<br>
Thank you!! <br>
<br>
