I'm using Froyo on my Verizon Droid. I haven't heard of any new syncing options; Google is trying to drive users into their services, which they can charge for. Syncing (with or without Exchange) at least used to require 3rd party aps, which so far I am not happy with. So yours is the "old" Droid, not the Droid X?

Today's pointless discussion at druid labs. Me: Ooooh, Free Droid with Froyo on Verizon through Letstalk.com. If we both get one, it'll increase our monthly cost by about $35. He: Well, what's AT&T offering us to stay? Android 2.1, with no guarantee of upgrading the OS? Still, a lot cheaper monthly outlay. Oh, wait, we'd have to buy one of the phones though at a steep discount. HTC Aria. Hmmmm. Me: We're more than 22 months in. We can re-up with AT&T now, if we want. He: Let me see how Verizon coverage is up here..... Us: yadda yadda yadda. ......nothing happens.....

So far, I'm digging it. Feels nice, moves quick, synched up seamlessly... keyboard feels a little wide but I'm sure that's just because its not what I'm used to. Touch keyboard is nice. I'm posting from it now.
