I like the comparison I heard the other day, iPhone is a polished product for the masses, Android is for techie types who like to have some control over their device.

I agree with this.

My wife has a Iphone, and I am just not as much of a fan. Is it a good phone? Yes. Does it run perfectly, yes. Does it give me the options I want? No way.

I like messing around with my phone I guess. I like adding custom ROMS, messing around with my phone, etc. I currently have a Motorola Droid Bionic and love it. While it may not be as polished as the iphone, I am having a blast making it "my" phone with customization.

Bionic. I have the OG Droid and it's been rock solid for almost 2 years. We recently got my wife the Droid 3, she wanted a keyboard because her nails are too long to type accurately on a virtual keyboard, I was scoping out the Bionic and that phone ROCKS!!
True DDR2 RAM...MMMMM.

just wait.. google is supposed to be announcing a Samsung/Google nexus prime(October 11th at some event). Which will have more development support, new android system and higher hardware specs. It should also support google wallet. Which might be a cool feature.

I have a moto bionic. Although its pretty cool. I liked the droid charge for user friendliness, development friendliness(custom ROMS) and it was lighter. MOTO blur is crap, its locked down like a vault and the phone is built pretty cheaply. IE lots of soft plastic.


As for the topic of the I4S. i think the biggest thing bar none that apple needs to do with the IOS firmware is get flash support. Sure i dont use it ofter but its great not to see broken webpages when i need to.

I don't think that will ever happen. Apple is looking for HTML 5 to solve this problem for them.
