the obvious reason why Imagio is less popular is it's VERIZON EXCLUSIVE.

Xmas had a huge droid push (first real/useful android phone) and iPhone is always going to be popular for kids, housewives & such with no real need for anything but basic web and a $0.99 apps to fulfill their boring lives. totally different market. Verizon's Driod Eris is also $100 cheaper which appeals to casuals or those with NO CLUE.

BRG just had a good android rant... check back on android when they have a great web browser, slingbox, remoteDesktop/VNC, emailer, etc.

sorry but if you care about HYPE get iPhone and be done with it. that will get the most hype for the next many years for reasons posted above and apples ~5% computer market share (making it the underdog vs evil MS and now google).
Its not hype. Being in the minority of mobile devices is awesome in the fact that you can wow people with what they can't do. It also sucks that we have to order from cheap Taiwanese accessories manufacturers through ebay that take 2 months to arrive and break after a few weeks. Would be nice to pick something up from Best Buy. Its like owning a mac.
