Seamless Exchange and sync capabilities, all the fit and finish of HTC TouchFLO/Sense, tethering, all the constant tinkering options available, custom ROMs, stable OS (with a properly tweaked custom ROM of course), some specific programs like G-Profile, PowerSMS etc, ability to do real multitasking with full control using task managers and app switching etc, the list goes on.

Android is still a fledgling OS and there is no doubt about it. Someone described the overall user experience on Android as "fragmented" and I couldn't agree more. It's coming along extremely fast though and I'm sure that soon enough I'll be switching over, it's just a matter of time. I doubt WinMo 7 is going to do anything to shake this up unfortunately. In the meantime though, WinMo is doing it for me more than the vanilla 2.1 Android. I predict that my if in a few months there comes along a Snapdragon Android handset with similar form factor like the N1 with Sense built in to it and a few versions further of Android, my upcoming HD2 will probably get traded in. This should be no later than the end of 2010.

The voice input on Android 2.1 is bar none though.. Now I know why they started testing voice transcriptions on GVoice so long ago and asking our input on when it was useful and when it wasn't. Good game Google!
