I’ve now had my Motorola Droid X from Verizon Wireless for close to a year and half or so. I love it. And it being a Unix-based OS, on it’s own, it never needs rebooting. On its own that is. But it’s funny as you add apps, how the thing gets a bit flaky on you. But as I’ve learned through the years, the more software you add to your computing platform, the more likely it is you will start to develope issues amongst competing drivers and what not. It seems to be the name of the game.
Over the many months, I’ve tried, played and deleted many an app on the phone.
I tread wearily when I tried apps so I can avoid some of the horror stories I’ve seen, IE: bricking the phone, etc.. Treading carefully means means that when I hit up the Droid App Store, (the Market), I look carefully at the reviews. A lot of reviews are not from the greatest minds on the planet, so I weigh them out and ponder the sources, but if I see a pattern of issues from multiple reviews, I tend to go on my merry way and ignore the app. Of course, there are those apps that come from outside the Market, but I only install those apps from trusted sources, or huge name companies, etc.. Organizations that I have had good dealings with.
But even large name orgs sometimes have problems, as, you will see.
