So far, my experience with HTC has been generally positive, with a few small problems here and there. Ironically, this will also be what I think of the HTC Droid Eris cell phone–mostly positive, with a few small problems here and there.

The HTC Droid Eris cell phone uses the Google Android (Cupcake) operating system in tandem with a Qualcomm® MSM7600™ processor and two hundred eighty eight megs of RAM. It has a 3.2 inch touch screen, email client, a battery that supports two hundred and fourteen minutes of talk time, a speakerphone, a five megapixel auto focus camera, support for a variety of audio and video files, Bluetooth connectivity, a microSD card slot, trackball and more.

Special note to the crew out at Research in Motion–this is how a trackball should work. It’s nowhere near as sensitive as the trackball involved with most every Blackberry that comes down the pike. And though there are plenty of great features in here, I do find it a little strange that the phone vibrates every time I select an option. That’s just strange.

But still, strange is, as I said, a very small complaint, so you won’t find much reason to be unhappy about with the HTC Droid Eris.

Plenty of great features

Proper trackball

Vibrates every time you select something
