So I was charging my Droid X and noticed that while I was connected I could not use my SD card anymore. And the camera will not take any picutures if there is no SD card present.

So I pulled down the task bar and selected “USB connection” .

Once I selected the “Charge Only” option, it was smooth sailing and my SD card was available to my phone again.

This is also the place to turn on “USB Mass storage” when you are ready to copy off those pictures.

So I finally moved away from the iPhone(as it turned horrible when I used the “supported” update to iOs 4 on my 3g) and have gotten myself a Droid X. This phone has been awesome(and I have only had it for 2 days).

The Google driving directions app that comes with the phone has been awesome and the unified mailbox is pretty cool. The Android market has been nice and I have perused quite a few apps so far and have been very excited as to what is out there. I was a little afraid as I had heard some less then great things but am very happy to be misinformed.

I am still on the hunt for a good messaging app that supports popup messages (like the iPhone had) and also looking for a new expense receipt tracking app.

I will be following up with some useful information about using the Android OS as I have access to two of them in the house.

I am excited to have this new toy and looking forward to the things I can do with it.
