There is a LOT to be desired with Android:
A decent base of commercial applications that support business users. The phone was sold as a power device, yet, it has almost NO business-centric applications. That's a huge problem

I disagree. I am a heavy corporate user and WinMo was a joke for me. It slowed me down. Android is much more productive and doesn't lock up everytime a meeting reminder fires off.

AMEN! I competely agree with this. Well, it is searchable... but it is a crappy search.

I don't need any of that other than the mail prog. MailDroid is AMAZING. Check into that one.

Let's not even mention how the constant polling of useless Google services drains the battery life out of the devices.

It's just a matter of time before Droid takes the lead ahead of iPhone. In terms of polling, i think there are apps for that.
