Hey OP, where exactly did you see your name in any of my posts?
I guess I should clarify a bit more---my question was directed at Android ONLY fanboys here with a sole purpose of trolling. I realize a lot of members here are multiple phone/platform users and I welcome a healthy debate regarding the 2 OS--just wishing the trolls would go away.
Alright, I'm now just as guilty for wasting forum space on not relevant posts--rant finished, moving on.
Droid X acts as a mobile hotspot. It allows you to connect up to five compatible Wi-Fi devices to Verizons network, such as your laptop, your iPad, or other gadgets, for an extra $20 per month. Moreover, Droid X offers a kit with all the G-apps pre-installed and has a superior battery life.
The hotspot is a nice feature, but you can get it for free using Wi-Fi Tether if you can actually root the phone... oh wait, you can't. Motorola is locking any bootloaders with hardware. And if you try, you risk bricking your phone. And i'm not so sure about the battery life comment either. Try going to any popular Android forum and you will see numerous complaints about the battery life.
Overall the Droid X is a good phone, but its simply not better than iPhone 4, as long as your holding it right
Also see lots of praise for the battery life on the Droid X.
Looks like you can also do bluetooth tethering with no charge. At least until the next update.
Here's a video of droid X launcher pro.

It's very snappy (unlike the motoblur for some reason)
This is the power of android. DOn't like the default look and feel? Take a couple minutes to change it to your liking. Don't like the iphone look and feel? Too bad.
