Okay, we have already looked into the Android Vs. iPhone iOS 4 stats that reveals smartphone market shares and they reflect the obvious – Android OS is growing like never before. One look at these numbers and you get to know that 27% of all recent smartphone purchases have been Android devices.
And the same number for the Apple iPhone is 23%. But this is not really surprising isn’t it? After all, in the recent weeks you have been reading that Android shipments have gone up by 886% worldwide, compared to last year. So, some of that increase had to show here.

It should also be noted that BlackBerry is still the overall leader with 35% overall share and 33% recent subscribers despite the recent waves by UAE’s telecommunication authority.

Still, I would be money ahead to smash my Berry as I have been wanting to and just get a 3rd line w/ a new iPhone w/ AT&T. It's just that I hate the fact that if I had not been an AT&T customer for the last 5+ years I could get a new phone for $199. Hate it.

As for not seeing pics have you gone into settings and take check mark out saying something about loading web pages in mobile view? Soon as I took that out I view all my web pages like I am on a computer.
I have a lot of customers with iPhones and every one of has something bad to say about ATT and the phone itself.
One guy went through FOUR phones in one month, with none of them being physically abused/damaged.
I've been using Verizon for about 8yrs now and can't tell y'all he number of times I've handed my phone to an ATT customer because they had ZERO signal.
Currently using the Droid X and like it. Some of the issues I have with it are as follows:
1. When selecting a contact, most of the time there's a long lag time from when I touch the screen and the call is placed.
2. I can't see pictures on i-club.
3. Sometimes when it has multiple windows open the browser locks up.
4. If I leave the satellite connection running, the battery dies very fast.
I will readily concede that I am a high tech Luddite and that I may be cause of the aforementioned issues.

I will say though that iOS 4 on a 3G runs at subpar speeds. I only had my phone break once though and that was after sitting on it about 20 times in one night. It survived falling out of my inside breast pocket many times on to concrete.
I really hope there are some price wars going on once it's released - can't wait to see the promo/retention offers! Been itching to upgrade from my 3G and I'm out of contract now..
I wanted to emulate this scene (caution, NSFW due to language and couldn't get it to embed):

I have an apple too
But I was never interested in the Iphone I think it was behind the times when I could have gotten it. No copy paste no MMS ect ect.

Like I showed in my last post, you can find anecdotal evidence to support anyone's facts (err, I mean opinions?), so arguing over which one is better is a lost cause as it makes all parties involved look like jackasses.
