Yes, this is true, but again, I don't think the pixels per second is ever going to be a factor. At least not with the resolution of current screens.

The speed of the GPU is going to be an obvious improvement though.

plus the fact that the resolution on the iPhone 4G is 960X640. (as shown here)

Going to be sweet.

But what I love about the Evo is 4.3" screen, after being on an HD2 that iPhone 4G screen is going to seem small, plus I love me some android.

Yeah, that res is absolutely awesome, but it's still iPhone OS, which bums me out. Oh and it's Apple, which makes it a big no for me. It could be 1280x1024 with 1080p out and a 4.5" screen and I still wouldn't buy it.

EDIT: If it did my dishes and laundry for me, I still wouldn't buy it.

It is what it is, I like iPhone OS for a lot of things and have no beef with apple, I'm going to get the iPhone, but I really love android (more than iPhone OS) and looking to get a nexus one as well.

Well personally I could care less about games... I had a 3gs and a ton of games that I rarely ever played unless I was SUPER bored.

Yeah if I want to play games, I usually like quick 2D puzzle games if it's on my phone. Otherwise I'll use my PSP/DS.

If I'm at home, I'll play a console. I'm never in a situation where I'm like "damn, this line at the bank is crazy, I need to get some 3D gaming in."

PLEASE STOP THE B/S As an iTouch Owner with multitasking i can say thats B/S because my iPod lags for 2 different reasons.

1. i have 5 pages of apps and i notice a lag while turning pages or opening an app.

2. when i have multiple apps running i also notice a lag with game play and other apps when there are 2 other apps open.

and my friend also notices these lags but worst and she only has 3 pages of apps and multitasking.

Unless it's Flash. Then it'll do it better on the Evo...mainly because the Evo actually CAN play Flash. lol

do you have a 3rg generation iTouch, and what kind of phone/ipod does your friend have. I said it lags a little on the 3G, but on 3GS backgrounder with proswitcher is pretty fast.

OS4.0 is an official OS which does have multitasking natively and does it with good battery performance. it comes out in less than a week. on the A4 1ghz it will be NO problem.

It will look better on the iPhone because of the higher resolution and better GPU, but yeah, no flash
