Yeah, it seems like a clue but a pretty broad one if it is.

I think Daytona Beach, FL or Indianapolis, IN when I think of cities that are synonymous with auto racing.

Perhaps it is a clue as to where specifically a phone will be found when a city is announced. For example, there is Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, TX in the greater DFW metroplex. A clue might lead to Fort Worth and this clue might lead to Texas Motor Speedway.

Agreed. We need more for phone #5.

New tweet:

Droid X designate #1 has been sighted in Nevada. Witnesses call it the greatest source of power next to the Hoover Dam.

If power means electricity, according to this, the current greatest source of power in Nevada is the Chuck Lenzie Generating Station. Until 2006, the greatest source of power was the Mohave Generating Station.

Another clue is probably necessary.

I don't think "next" means "in proximity to", but rather "in comparison to".

Chuck Lenzie Generating Station • North of Las Vegas • 1,102 MW
Edward W. Clark Generating Station • Las Vegas • 1,102 MW

Both offer 1,102 MW.

Droid 3 IS on the west coast. Possibly right on the beach. Droid 12 is said to be in the heartland. The Midwest is often refered to as the heartland, so there just might be a Chicago drop. Though it seems the may not be releasing in large municipalities, but just various locations around the US.

Could be. But it could also just be a play on "amber waves of grain" from the song, "America, The Beautiful". But the way it's playing out, it just might be in Amber.

I was thinking the exact same thing Carnage but even more specifically I would think refers to the great plain states (which doesn't help much) and going further Kansas which was the backdrop for that line when it was written.

Amber, IA perhaps. I guess we'll have to wait for the next clue.

It could also mean the droid is the greatest source of power next to the hoover dam. For example like the last twitter about the cali droid being the most powerful cybernetic machine since Arnold took office

Now we have one on the east coast.

And as a sidenote, I was talking with my bossman, yes, I have a boss I can actually TALK to, about the location of Droid 1, He joked that it might be in the bushes near the dam road, or even dangling off the side. Curious though, do we have anyone near the dam itself to look around it?

You know what, VeritasK, I think you might be on to something there. I decided to do a few searches.

After a few I tried a search for "Hunters Assemble New York" and got:

Hunter College - Assembly Hall
695 Park Avenue
New York, NY 10021

It would match for the school, location, and even name to a point.

Do we have any ops in NYC that can check this place out?

It might be a good bet. It is summer break so access to the location may be limited. I'm not sure how they run things around there.

Everyone else clear the area might even reference Students leaving since it is in fact summer break.

You got it. Now if only we can get someone over there. I might have a contact over there. I'll have to see if I can get ahold of her. I doubt it though. She may already be back home in Portland.
