Which would be the better phone? I am not very tech. savey. I do use as much as possable. I have the Eris {word filter avoidance} right now.
Thanks
Both are really good phones, however, I believe that the Droid X has several advantages. It has a better camera. It has a better screen. It is a bit faster. I would suggest that you do a side-by-side comparison between the two phones.
both are good phone.
for me the x was too big
from using my wifes d2 i also prefer touchwiz over blur, but this is a personal choice
if you put anytype of a case on the x you will feel like your carrying a laptop, its just that massive

the x has a bigger screen, but the samoled on the fascinate is a better picture side by sade
This is a personal thing. I do not find the Droid X that big. Compare it to some of the older "Hershey Bar" phones, it's small. I suppose that if you were small, or had small hands, it would be massive. I put my phone in my pants pocket with no problem, and it feels less heavy than the Droid 2.

Definitely a personal perception thing. I have the Incipio Silicrylic case on my X and when it goes in my pocket, it just feelas like it disappears.
Well I have ordered the X. Should be here today at 3:00 pm. got the CPO. has the 16gb card in it. Thanks for the advice folks.

I think you will be happy you went the Motorola route. Holding the two devices in your hand side by side you will notice the Fascinate has a cheap plastic feel but the Droid X has a sleek metal feel. Also Motorola has a history of making devices that last and they continue support for them. Heck they still provide support and updates for the original Droid and it's been out for over a year now.
Samsung and HTC both have a history of dropping support for devices as soon as they develope a new product, your Eris is a perfect example of this.
As far as size goes, I have the leather case on my phone and it fits fine in my hand and my pockets. But then I don't have tiny hands or wear the Miller Lite skinny jeans. However everyone who has told me that the phone was ginormous quickly retracted their comments after I allowed them to hold the phone and watch a video on it.
well im not a small guy, but as i said it just felt huge. the fascinate feels much smaller and sleeker.
i have nothing against motorol, ive owned thier phones and the were good phones.
samsungs i have owned have been just as good.
i always advise people to go to a vzw corp store and play with any model they are interested in before buying
I am happy I got the Droid over the Facinate, I am blind in one eye and I could not deal with the blueish tint that all the Galaxy S phones screens have, the droid X is more readable for me. Plus after adding ADW EX with my own tweaks I love the device.
Well phone came today! I can't tell the difference between new and CPO. I need to work on learning how to work the "Good Stuff" on it. But it's not to big, Also got the Car dock and desk top dock off of Amazon for $68 shipped!.

Congrats and welcome to the wonderful world of Droid X. I think you'll be happy with the X over the Fascinate. That was one I considered a few months ago, but it just seemed small, cheaply made, and ... frankly ... more for a female (no offense).
