Considering the Samsung Galaxy SII may be out as soon as the 24th I'd definitely consider it competition. Some will prefer the 3D(I would imagine people in this forum are going to be skewed toward the 3D but then again people in the Galaxy SII forum would probably much more fond of that unit). Some of us are experiencing poor battery life that the SGSII may or may not be better in that respect. It will be unlocked on release so I wouldn't be suprised if someone rigs it with the sense overlay quickly. Since it will be unlocked someone will probably enable a permanent tether solution quickly. Since it will be unlocked on release that will allow developers to create well designed, quicker, and more power efficient packages quickly. Some of us are experiencing slow download speeds which the SGSII may or may not also have. Some of us are experiencing problems with signal lock and call drops which the SGSII may or may not have. Some may prefer the Super Amoled plus screen which offers greater contrast and reduced power consumption while some may prefer the higher resolution of the 3D. Some may be looking for the thinner and lighter design of the SGSII. Some may want the higher resolution camera of the SGSII (although resolution alone doens't make a picture good).
As for the arrive, I agree the arrive hardware is sub par but WP7 is more power efficient, runs more smoothly on a lower speed processor and has better handling for exchange email servers which the bulk of businesses use. We probably won't seen any decent WP7 hardware until the end of this year.
I haven't decided what to do yet, myself but I am cetainly going to check out the SGSII before I lock myself in with the 3D.
