Comment - Will iPhone 5 bring the perfect storm?
(Jul 18, 2011 - 8:29 PM)

There are multiple Android OS branded phones (LG, Motorola, Sony, etc.). There's only 1 Apple iPhone. The Android OS is not as reliable on some devices as it is on other devices. Each Android phone has a different GUI, each new Android phone you get, there's a good chance that most things are in other places. And, with the iP\hone, everything is equal powered, menus all look the same, and the phone is guaranteed to work. The battery can't be removed, and there's no Micro SD card option. I'm glad that everybody here is Pro Android, because it's the hottest new fad out there today.

Android, Apple ... Windows, Macintosh ... Dish Network, DirecTV -- We all are entitled to our opinions, right? We all don't need to have the same thing! Because Joe likes the reliability of the iPhone (such as myself), it doesn't make either of us less than someone who lives and breathes Android.

Android this, Android that ... I'm tired of having to reset my Android phone every 9 hours because it's an unreliable OS that freezes so often.

Yeah, that or they'll start censoring the calls like it's broadcast television!
Comment - 5 things Apple borrowed from Android for iOS 5

For me, it's all about convenience. I have had an iPod Touch for a year now, and I really like how things were working for it. At the time I had my iPod Touch, Verizon didn't have carriage rights for the iPhone, so I had to live on what I had. Then, it got time for my "New Every 2" upgrade. I decided to go the Android OS route because Verizon still didn't have the iPhone.

7 months later, I'm on my 3rd Android phone. Compared to the iPhone (or in my case, my iPod Touch), iOS is a more stable system and I have never had any issues whatsoever with my iPod Touch. The only thing missing was a real phone and a 3G enabled connection.

A very close friend of mine just got his iPhone on Verizon, and he loves the crap out of it compared to his Motorola Droid (my 2nd Android phone). Today, I use the Droid 2 Global, and I'm still having a few issues.

At least on my iPod Touch, I had access to Hulu Plus, Netflix, and I could have video conversations using Skype. I can't do any of that using my Droid 2, or the other phones I was using. Then, there's constant bugs with the various Android apps. Again, I've never had any issues with my iPod Touch to the point where I would have to reboot it. Bottom line, I am clearly not happy with the Android OS, and am willing to "jump ship".

I really enjoy how RJ Parker likes to emphasize words by CAPITALIZING them like they make some kind of POINT!
