The Network
The wireless network makes a world of difference. To get the most out of a smartphone requires a robust network that blankets pretty much everywhere you want to be.
As we all know, the Apple iPhone 4 is exclusive to AT&T here in the U.S. It runs on AT&T's 3G network or falls back onto quad-band GSM or EDGE where 3G isn't working.
The Motorola Droid X takes advantage of Verizon's 3G network, which has a larger coverage area than AT&T, and leverages GSM, GPRS and EDGE when 3G isn't available.
Winner: Motorola Droid X. Verizon has proven that its wireless network is stable and sound and the Droid X aligning with Verizon is a big win.
