Specs don't tell everything
is a 1996 chevy with 4 doors and v8 engine better than a 2008 2-door
lexus with a v6?

Its the whole experience of the device that matters. Can the
DroidDont dock itself into 80% of the vehicles currently made? No, you
can use an auxiliary input but docks in cars are made for
iPods/iPhones.

Can the DroidDont use the thousands of third party speakers,
chargers, etc that the iPhone can? No, those are made for
iPods/iPhones.

Will the DroidDont dock in the new airline seats? No...get the picture?

And, of course, the killer is 100 million iTunes users want a media
device that can sync easily with their iTunes, DroidDont loses again.

The DroidDont is another iPhone wannabe with zero, repeat, zero
track record. How will it do in the torture test? Does it have optical
grade quality glass like the iPhone? will it be a piece of crap like the
Storm? It's too early to tell.

The DroidDont will sell well to the Apple haters and those looking for
a viable alternative to the iPhone. I think the Pre and Storm are losers
here.
