You would think that with all the new competition in the smartphone market, that the long-in-the-tooth Motorola Droid would start slowing down in sales, well you’d be wrong. Despite the popularity of rival HTC’s Incredible, demand for the Droid at Verizon Wireless stores is still strong, said co-Chief Exec Sanjay Jha. Demand is so strong in fact, that the only thing limiting sales is the availability of the Droid itself.
Jha informed reporters that they have been suffering from supply chain constraints. “Sales are going extremely well. If I could build more, I’d sell more.”
I wonder if the extremely large modding community for the Droid has anything to do with this?
The final tidbit of information said by Jha was that this year’s phone line-up would include two to four phones with front-facing cameras that could be used for video conferencing. It looks like Motorola is playing a little catchup with the iPhone and HTC EVO. At least with the Android-based Motorola phones, you won’t be restriced to wifi.
