This message is for all the ladies in the house. Are any of you experiencing a similar phenomena? My boyfriend only loves his droid now, I'm not sure he even notices we are in the same proximity. Whenever we go grocery shopping or out to eat, he walks around with his eyes glued to his droid, so that he runs into people and walls, and looks like he's lost on a tropical island. I think he has stopped showering because he cannot get his droid wet.
Whenever I want to wake him up I just say "DRROOOID" in that robotic voice and he pops right up, but then looks at me indignantly, like "you are not my droid." And so I have resorted to saying "GGGIIIIRLFRIIIEND" in that same cold mechanical tone in an effort to compete with his new companion. Please, Verizon and Google. WHAT {edit} AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?!?!? {edit}

Maybe use that 5mp camera to take some pics and make them his background? Think of it like Plavo's dogs...bell=dinner....Droid=
time
Good luck!

I am a female and addicted to my Android G1 phone. At first when I got the phone I took it every where with me. Now a days I sometimes leave it at home because I rather have my Verizon phone with me. I don't think I could ever give the phone up the phone though. My phone's apart of me.
Actually it's not a new phenomenon. Google "Crackberry" it was first seen with blackberry devices. Like any affair, the passion will wear off in time. I think I was only addicted to my blackberry for the first year or two. The affair would return after the occasional system update, but would only be a fling of 1 or 2 days at most, and only after the OS received a nice new look, new crevices to explore etc. Unfortunately, blackberry updates were few and far between for my device.
Android has the advantage over other possible affair canidates that it is constantly changing and evolving into something new with tens of thousands of new things to explore and play with to keep the potential suitor interested and coming back for more.
I do like the "GIRRRLLLFRIEND" ideal That was cute 
Want to get his attention, install one of the remote lock/wipe apps, and when it's girlfriend time, get on the computer and lock his phone LOL (If you are interested in staying girlfriend, I'd recommend not doing the wipe function LOL)
