lmao, everyone calls android phones "droid", no matter who the patent holder is.
That is absolutely correct.
Everyone may not say it but most everyone knows or should know what they mean when they say 'droid' in this context and not correct someone for correctly using the word.
Back to the topic. Maybe you guys could try WAZE.
https://www.waze.com/ It is free for all smartphones, Iphones,Ipads, Windows based phones and of course 'droid' based phones and pda's.
If you think me using the word 'droid' is wrong when referring to a smart phone when it means: 'Google's Android Operating System for Smartphones' or simply 'droid' for short which has been now ported over to PDA's, laptop's and home pc's, media players (ChromeCast is just one tiny example)and arm band sized wrist devices (Sony), automobiles, eyeglasses and on and on. All these devices can and often are coined as 'Droid' based. Maybe not by every single person. Yes, to be correct we should say these are all 'Android' based but come on, lighten up. You knew and we knew exactly what he meant. Yes, some of us are aware that Motorola does make a phone called 'Droid' but so what. We all know what it means. This is a motorcycle forum is it not?
Also you should be sure of your facts before correcting others:
DROID is a trademark of Lucasfilm, Ltd. and its related companies and not Verizon or Motorola.
You also stated:
I simply pointed out an incorrect term, and without quoting or directing at anyone, yet in the same post you quoted him directly and then you wonder why he would be agitated.
Now that was funny: Droid Android car vehicle automobile bike motorcycle motorbike engine motor boat ship vessel gun firearm pistol boobs jugs breasts GPS Garmin monkey primate water H2O.......yadda yadda yadda.
