The Motorola Droid X, the latest Android-based smartphone to hit store shelves, is now sold out. The device boasts a 4.3-inch display, runs Android OS 2.1 (version 2.2 is coming soon), and is available on Verizon's network. The Droid X is arguably the first major Android release to get the same attention as the iPhone. And by doing so, it is helping Google appeal to corporate customers that might have otherwise opted to stick with BlackBerry OS or go with the iPhone.
For the CIO, choosing between an Android OS-based device and an iPhone might be difficult, since they both offer similar functionality. Inevitably, the decision comes down to the value of the software and the quality of the hardware. For now, that might mean the iPhone wins out. But as more Android-based devices launch with the same level of quality as the Droid X, Apple's iPhone might not hold up. Deploying Android is something to consider going forward.
