First off, the OP stated that he already purchased his Droid and he's looking for suggestions on what apps to get - not what phone he should buy.

Meh....I've had more friends / coworkers with blackberry trouble (whether it's software related or physical issues with the phone) than problems with Android phones. I abuse the hell out of my Droid X (including allowing my 3.5 year old and 15 month old play with it) and it still looks brand new. No screen protector, no case. Glad you're happy with your BB though.

With the Iphone you Have Apple to provide service and they rock. Apple Makes awesome stuff dude.

Iphone is fine for someone who wants their phone experience controlled completely by steve jobs, and it's not a bad phone overall. For those who would like to use their phone the way they want, android all the way. As far as outdated phones go - Apple has released a new iPhone every summer since 2007, while sprinkling in updates to capacity and color in between.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.
