AppSlappy #27: "Droid makes RIM nervous"

Verizon Wireless made clear from the start that its Droid smartphone was designed to put pressure on Apple, the maker of the iPhone, and AT&T (T), the exclusive U.S. iPhone carrier. As part of a $100 million marketing push, Verizon Wireless enumerates several ways it believes the Droid outperforms the iPhone.

Yet analysts say the Droid and other devices that sport the Android operating system may also take a toll on Research In Motion, the maker of another smartphone, the BlackBerry. “It’s clear there’s been a lot of marketing at Verizon around the Droid, so that is going to hurt RIM,” says Raymond James (RJF) analyst Steve Li.
