The Motorola Droid outsold the original Apple iPhone in the first 74 days of sales, says research shop Flurry. The 74-day mark is a significant milepost because it took Apple that long to sell its first million iPhones back in 2007.
The Motorola Droid was the first Google Android-powered phone for Verizon and the flagship smartphone of Motorola’s turnaround effort. The Motorola Droid got off to a weak start at stores where little-to-no lines formed ahead of time and no sellouts were reported. But Verizon’s ongoing $100 million Droid advertising campaign has helped keep the phone in the public eye.
