I have friends that have Droids and are like F&*&, "man they came out with another android and I can't get a replacement for this one". Hear that alot. With the Iphone you Have Apple to provide service and they rock. Apple Makes awesome stuff dude.

As far as outdated phones go - Apple has released a new iPhone every summer since 2007, while sprinkling in updates to capacity and color in between. iPhone users are typically locked into the same contracts as Android phone users, so what's the difference? Android gives you more phone choice so at least you'll have more say in what you are stuck with for a year or two.

Exactly which companies are you talking about that provide poor Android customer service? Google owns the OS, over 30 companies worldwide sell phones that run the Android OS, and they are sold to customers of every major cell phone carrier in this country.

I haven't been on this site in a LONG time. But I was giving the address to my cousin who recently bought a Camaro. And I stumbled on this thread.

I have an Droid X. I thought I would miss the physical keyboard of my enV Touch. But with Swype, I couldn't imagine going back to a physical keyboard. I hate typing words out letter by letter now. Just go with something with a large screen, it makes it even easier if you have big fingers...

Android phones are always getting better and better.
iPhone, you are always guaranteed to already be behind in technology. Just put a fancy wrapper on it, and call it "better".
Since Android is an OS, and not a phone company, they have no control over how technology continues to improve and evolve. Apple's slow reaction and slow developmental cycles blow. iPad 2 came out, and its already behind the Android tablets, but because of the name and fancy wrapper, it sells like gangbusters.

yeah i was at the verizon store and they had a placemat with all the tablet, and i think motorolas xoom beat the ipad 2 in every category

iPad 2 is thinner, thats about all I could come up with. Combine with Apple's superior marketing, and you have iPad 2 as the champ.
