**Mithras** · 15-11-2010

Well I really do not know if this is at all possible but I am thinking about this seriously. I want to have the Motorola Droid cell phones and I want to have them Sync with the Linux. As I have already mentioned that I am completely blank about this particular situation but will be really happy if that can be virtually possible. Please let me know if anyone has successfully achieved the same here. Please help me out guys.

To start with let me tell you that it is really possible to have such mobile from the Motorola’s desk. Well regarding the sync that you are talking about it depends, what you actually mean by the SYNC. It will be able to mount this as a USB device. Also it does the syncing well, for that it does the same on the cloud and it does that pretty nicely. With the SYNC established nicely you will be able to do all the interesting things with the phone. You will be able to use the phone as a wireless hotspot. It comes with the WEP encryption. Hope that you will be able to enjoy all the features of the phone.

For the things to go in the manner that you have wished for all you will have to have is the Motorola Droid phone and then after that you have the mobile phone you will be required to have the 2.0 android update and then you will be able to enjoy all the features of the phone as well as you will be able to sync the Mobile with the Linux operating System. I even wish that you will be able to experience all the features of the mobile phone and with much lesser trouble.

I have the Motorola Droid with me and let me tell you that I am really very happy with the same. I just wanted to tell that the piece is excellent and is really nice from all the corners. The battery life of this piece is really decent and it lasts for the hours that have been promised. Also I have seen that the touch screen of this mobile phone is really very responsive and hence I really love it. I would suggest you to have this one and really enjoy all the features that it gives. We will talk about the features more when you will have the same for you.

Equipped with the Droid and I just want to make a point that I had preferred it on top of the iPhone. The services that the AT and T’s use to give with the iPhone was really horrible and hence I decide to go with the Droid. As far as the phone is concerned I think that the cell phone is really nice. In addition to that let me warn you about some of the down side features of the droid, if at all you are not a Google user then you are bound to miss on some nice features of the Phone. By Google user I mean to say using the Gmail, Calendars, etc. So please make a point of that before going for the said phone. I am of the opinion that you would have found my post really useful.
