Droid 2 being discontinued?
Ahh the rumor mill, the mill is meeting up with the Droid 2. This little replacement to the ever popular OG Droid, was launched just a mere 5 weeks ago is in jeopardy of being phased out, this according to a little rumor making its way around the ring.
BGR has recently un- earthed an internal Verizon document that has some pretty intriguing information posted under the Droid 2. The listing shows a Droid X to the left with a “New” labeling a Droid Incredible to the right which presumably states “by HTC” and the Droid 2 with a “While supplies last” labeling? Now we all know that the manufacturers of these high end smart phones are having a hard time keeping up with demand, but the Droid 2 has been around for about a month, what gives? Answer, the Droid 2 World Edition. While this is essentially still rumor, it would only make sense. It is hard to understand why Motorola would push so hard to get this device into the market place, simply to pull it out and release an updated version. However, when looking at it from a business perceptive it is surely understandable. But why not make the Droid 2 a “world device” out of the gate.
While this is still a rumor, it is hard to imagine something being outdated within a matter of a month or so, as all Droid 2 users that have already picked the device up won’t have the World Capabilities. Did you pick up a Droid 2? Does this new, leave you all tingly inside?

It seems wasteful to manufacture and market a phone, only to pull it a month later. Why didn’t they just make the Droid 2 a global phone from the beginning? Will Motorola still put out software updates for this phone?

I have the droid 2 and this information doesn’t really bother me. I’m happy with my phone, and we all know it is only a matter of time before whatever phone you have is replaced with something better. As long as Verizon gives us gingerbread, I’ll be happy. Besides, Verizon does offer 1 year upgrades.
