Motorola Rolls Out Droid Mobile Device

NEW YORK — Motorola has unveiled the adult-friendly Droid mobile device, which they're positioning as a challenger to the iPhone.

The tech company has been promoting the Droid with an extensive ad campaign that targets everything the iPhone can't do, but the Droid can, such as run simultaneous apps. The Droid can do this because it runs on the Android OS, Google's entry into the mobile marketplace.

Because Android is essentially an open community for developers, it's also far more welcoming to adult than the iPhone, which still shutters its App Store from all things adult.

Google's version of the App Store, called Marketplace, doesn't allow adult apps, either, but adult developers can still build adult apps and promote them on separate sites. At the same time, users can install and run these apps without overriding the native operating systems on their mobile devices.

The Motorola Droid hits the market with host of attractive features, including a 3.7-inch screen, a 5 megapixel still camera, and a camera that can shoot DVD-quality video that can be stored on a 16 GB memory card.

In addition, the Droid comes bundled with support for all of Google's major online services, including Gmail, Talk, Voice, Contacts, Calendar and Maps. Users can send standard and multimedia text messages over the Droid.
