It was not a head to head battle. They were released at about the same time. But one was advertised. One wasn't. Guess which one sold more?
I'm not sure what point you are trying to make with the 3 year marketing campaign of the iPhone. All I'm saying is marketing sold millions of iPhones. Marketing sold millions of Droids. iPhone and Droid were given halo phone status on AT&T and Verizon, respectively. Droid Eris was not marketed anywhere near the amount of the Droid, and sold much fewer units. If the Droid was given generic marketing from Verizon, and the Eris was given the marketing campaign of the Droid, you would see a huge increase in the number of Eris sales, compared to sales of the Droid.
