Motorola Droid to be Sold Early on November 6

Tweet

Verizon is definitely decided to make the most of the Motorola Droid launch day. The hot phone will be available in Big Red stores starting with November 6, but I’m sure you already know that. What you don’t know is that Verizon is going to make the day as special as possible in order for its customers to enjoy as much as possible the Droid launch day.

Verizon has officially announced that many of its more than 2,000 Communication Stores will be opening their doors early this Friday. Stores will open from 7-8 AM in the morning and if you haven’t pre-ordered the Droid from Best Buy yet, it might be a good idea for you to go to a Verizon store as early as possible.

Besides the extended hours, Verizon will also offer you in-store demos of the Droid. If you have any questions regarding your newly purchased device you should definitely ask for help. Demonstrations will only be available in select location though so don’t be mad if your local store can’t put on a big show for you.

One of the most interesting events taking place next Friday is the rumored “Droid Does Times Square” event which we’ve told you about in an earlier post. If you happen to be in New York this Friday, you will be able to control the NASDAQ and Reuters signs by voice commands only. You’ll have to call a toll-free number and then you’ll be able to search for stuff around the Times Square area. The results will be displayed on the boards through Google Maps. The whole experience will be available for you to watch in real-time online in case you’re not in New York. This special feature will be offered only to Droid users from November 6 through November 20, daily from 12:30 PM to 2:10 PM and from 6:30 PM to 8:10 PM. The billboards will also be controllable from 6:00 AM on November 27 through 2:00 AM on November 28.

So what do you say? Are you excited about the Droid?
