You’re right… The hundredth seconds of lag hardly noticeable on the Nexus One (and now other Android phones toting the 1Ghz processor) obviously makes the phone worthless when being compared with the all-powerful iPhone. This kind of opinion shows your ignorance when it comes to using phone. Just like the average unsatisfied consumer, you are easily dazzled by the pretty lights and flashy colors. If you’re going to call making a phone with an OS with endless customization possibilities a “pathetic attempt” then you simply don’t understand why people buy Android in the first place. On top of that, it’s nice to be able to choose the phone one wants and still have the best phone OS available to any tech-fan. Android is already being seen on tons of phones and there’s only more to come, which also means only more apps to come. You say you’re not an Apple fanboy but your claim that the iPhone creates “a perfect environment” makes that statement pretty null. I guess in your opinion now that we’ve made the iPhone we should just stop trying to compete with it? I mean perfection has already been achieved, correct? Truthfully, I really just feel bad for you. If you didn’t already have your baby teeth sunk into and latched onto apple’s tit, you might have the foresight to purchase a phone that will (by 2014) have the best phone OS known to man.

you are an idiot and so is the person your agreeing with. just because apple is innovative and all everyone else does is copy is a great reason to hate them. Its funny i have a droid but thats only because i dont have att, but holy shit it sucks in comparison, i mean its not even a fare comparison they shouldn’t even be considered the same category. when the multitouch iphone first came out it was so far ahead of anything else it was a joke. and now with the appstore it still is. the droid sucks and so does the nexus one but not because of hardware. it just lacks any good software it is sad actually because i have a droid and wish apple had some real competition.

It really is true you just can not match the feel and smoothness of the iphone os i am no apple fanboy but i use the droid and i can not help but think holy shit this feels like an antiquity in comparison and you have to be an idiot to not think that all those companies didn’t see the iphone and think holy shit we are screwed because it felt like it dropped from space and all these phones are just other companies pathetic attempts of competing with what they can’t beat. it has very little to do with hardware and a lot to do with itunes, app store, and iphone os. It is just a perfect environment.

Apple is good at two things. Innovation and PR. Making ordinary objects “look and function” in an appealing manner and promoting the hell out it. Notice I didn’t say efficient or fast. The positive outcome of this type of success is that it spurs others to innovate REAL advances. In the attempt to profit from emulating the Apple mystique, these others companies bring the rest of us who want replaceable batteries, expandable memory, and an open OS the gadgets we REALLY want without compromises.
