some of my friends have the iphone, i have a samsung moment through sprint.at&t coverage is alone terrible, plus i have coverage everywhere with sprint. the sprint 69.99 plan is so much better than at&t’s 69.99.. i get unlimited everything including minutes with mobile phones, and 450 to talk to land-line numbers. saving so much there vs the iphone’s 99.99 plus plans. i got free navigation, and the only good thing about the iphone is the whole app store, but like others say in time it will beat apple’s app store. i love my moment, i got like 7 customizable screens plus the open platform is awsome, you can have it any way you want vs. apple’s only this screen. ALL I CAN SAY IS GOOGLE HAS CAME UP WITH SOME AWSOME DEVICES THAT I DONT THINK APPLE CAN KEEP UP WITH.. THAT IS WHY THEY ARE SUEING HTC. BECAUSE THEY ARE INFACT SCARED THAT SOMEBODY IS GOING TO BE BETTER IN THE SMARTPHONE FIELD. I MEAN ALONE LOOK AT ANDROID VS IPHONE.. ANDROID HAS CAN OUT WITH AT LEAST 7+ PHONES IN 6 MONTHS.. APPLE HAS YET TO COME OUT WITH 1 NEW PHONE IN THAT TIME. ANDROID IS AWSOME!

I had the original iPhone and a 3G iPhone for a few years combine. I live in Canada, go the Google phone is not available here yet. I bought an unlocked Google phone from the United States almost a month ago. Kept the iPhone too… I thought I would never be able to replace my iPhone. But to my surprise, the Google phone has slowly taken over my iPhone. I gave my iPhone to my dad because it was not being used. It is more obvious to me now that I have a Google phone that I was a prisoner of iTunes. Also, payed $900 to get the unlocked 3GS iPhone. Soon after, when I did an update, apple locked my phone. What is up with that? I was so mad about it that I sold it on eBay for $150 bucks. Can’t browse Flash websites either on any iPhone. It is obvious to me now how full of $#!t Apple really is… It’s all face-value. I am a lot happier with my new Google phone.

i bought the samsung moment, after using this incredible phone, i dont think apple could be able to catch up to android if they dont fix the problems people have with the iPhone.!!
android is more affordable then the iPhone, and it has the same features, and a couple better ones.!
Android is going to be the next big thing.!
apple will be nothing if they dont try and keep up with google.

I had AT&T for 2 years and the service was terrible. I switched to verizon and have been completely satisfied. I bought the motorola droid 3 weeks ago and its the most amazing phone I’ve ever had. I have friends with the iphone that have used my droid and said it was faster. It comes standard with 16G, plus the commercial about not being able to browse the web while on a call is false. I’ve done it several times when I’ve needed to. You can spend $400 on an iphone with a terrible coverage company or spend $200 and have constant 3G. Plus free apps all day!

Own a Blackberry Bold for 1 year now. Excellent machine. Had the iPhone for 3 weeks. Iphone will not work with cold hands or a cold touch screen. (Canada eh!) This year was going to upgrade to the iPhone 3GS but will wait now for the Android powered Sony Ericson Experia X10.

The iPhone / Apple never sit on their laurels, so I will be awaiting what revolutionary upgrades Apple comes up with. They never cease to amaze me. I am a Apple user all the way now and will not change as far as I see.

I will be postponing my iPhone purchase till I see how Android plays out.. they seem ridiculously comparable to me with droid being more accessible so I’ll just wait and see how good it really is.

Just purchased my DROID from Verizon/Google about two weeks ago. All I can say is that this device is awesome. It is a very fun phone to have and the App store is great. Obviously the App store is not as immense at the iPhone but only time will fix that. I liked how it synced all my contacts from Facebook. The Apps are fun and interesting.

I never had an iPhone so I am not going to trash it. I hate ATT with a passion so that is why I can NEVER buy the iPhone. When the iPhone comes to Verizon I will check it out.

The only PROBLEM the DROID has is that when you make/receive a call you are not able to search on the web.Just like the ATT commercial is saying. You are not able to search on the web and talk. That’s the only flaw.

But the good thing is that Verizon will hopefully fix that since they are dumping their CDMA and going to 4G (LTE Wireless) in 2010.

I had just purchased my 2nd iphone in August. It was nice but the “closed” availability was a pain. Last week I saw a 5 minute demo on the android system. It was on an HTC hero from sprint. Being able to compare head to head… I am now the proud owner of an Android. Good bye and farewell to the iphone.
