This, basically. Couple that with the two phones having nearly identical app selections (though Android has more free ones, in my experience) and the choice mostly boils down to the physical phone you prefer... not the OS. I went Droid because I demand a physical keyboard.Ken Sapp said:Depends on what you are looking for in a smartphone. The iPhone is a polished peice of hardware and software but it is locked down pretty tight. Android is a very good platform which you can do just about whatever you want with. For the typical user I would say there really isn't any difference between the two.
The only real nice thing I like about the iOS, is that if an app works on your iPhone, the app works on every iPhone and iPod touch (unless it relies on hardware like the front-facing camera). There are so many different Android phones running different OS versions with different hardware capabilities that it's always a crapshoot whether something is going to work the way it's intended to.
