Re: iPhone or Android?

Illl be unbiased since I have both an android phone and a 3gs. Multimedia wise alone, the iphone hands down. App wise alone, the iphone hands down again. Now if you're looking for the total package with a mix of being able to tweak and mod your phone plus all the other perks then i'd have to say android.

Honestly you wont get many pluses for the iphone here being that most people here have a strong disdain for it. But the bottom line for me is that there are still a ton of VERY useful apps on the 3gs that no other OS has yet. Contrary to what others say as far as the "most of them are useless", I really cant agree. Android is doing a better job at getting app developers to crossover as of lately though.

Both phones have their strengths and weaknesses. The iphone is definitely the more locked down of the two, but my 3gs is unlocked and jailbroken and does pretty much anything other OS do including multitasking. It basically boils down to what you really need your phone to do. HOWEVER, keep in mind that as far as I know... as far as traveling outside of the country the Evo wont be a world phone and Sprints international plans arent very pocket friendly. With the iphone, IF its unlocked youll be able to use it anywhere. You probably wont be able to get 3G with it but it will work by just using an international sim card.

I like both and plan on keeping both.. mainly because the iphone has so many apps that I use and need that havent made it over to android yet. But when that happens ill probably go ahead and switch to android 100%. Aside from the apps, even though the iphone is definitely the most locked down OS, people love it because it just works. The interface is simple as pie and the speed of it does well even against the newer snapdragon phones. I doubt if I buy the new iphone but as much as people here hate it, it does what its supposed to do...and well.
