Game Gripper brings Emu-goodness to the Droid
The folks over at Game Gripper have come up with an incredibly needed add-on for the Droid. This handy-dandy gadget slips over the Droid’s keyboard and does the work of pressing the keys for you, bringing the feel of a real controller to you anywhere you are. Not exactly a high-tech solution, but who needs that? Video of it in action after the break. [GameGripper via Engadget]

HTC’s new Sense user interface ported to the Motorola Droid
It’s hardly shocking, but HTC’s new Sense user interface (read our review here) has been ported onto the Motorola Droid. It’s still a little buggy, but damned if its not the same ROM (more or less) that was ripped off the HTC Desire and thrust upon the Nexus One. So stay tuned to this project if you’re dead set on putting HTC’s buttery smooth UI on top of Moto’s bludgeon-you-to-death hardware, as this one’s got legs, people.

Motorola Droid & Cliq Getting Android 2.1, Droid to Get Flash 10
Don’t worry Droid & Cliq owners, you’re not going to be left in the dark. Motorola also announced that they’ll be bringing both the Motorola Droid & Motorola Cliq to Android 2.1. Which means we should be able to enjoy all the goodies that made the Nexus One so jaw-droppingly sexy on our Motorola Android phones. We’re definitely interested in seeing Motoblur and Android 2.1 interact, but that’s a discussion for another day.
But the news doesn’t stop there for Droid owners. Not only will they receive Android 2.1 but Motorola has been working on Flash 10.1 integration and has optimized it for the Droid chipset, which means yes, your Droid will soon have official Flash support. On top of that, the Droid should get a second maintenance update in the near future. Score big for Droid.
Since yesterday wasn’t such a good day to be a Droid owner, today is shaping up totally different! What do you guys think?

- You hear it all the time, "My device has dust under the screen!" It seems that there are always a few people plagued with this issue no matter the device, and sadly a lot of our readers have the dust issue with the Moto Droid.
- A lot of you have recently come over to Android from various other platforms. How does the Android Market stand up compared to the others out there?
- The Nexus One is right around the corner, but are you willing to dish out $530 for this unlocked device? So far in this poll most of you are staying far away from this deal…
- Just another reminder, help out Rene from the iPhone Blog with some of his Android questions – you may just win something and that’s always a good thing right?
