Is the iPhone Better Than Android?

It's actually quite simple.

If you want a device that Just Works... get an Apple device.

If you enjoy the search for software inconsistencies and issues... get something else.

I buy and use Macs (at home) because I don't like fussing with computers on my off time. I do enough of that at work (in Windows).

If I had the time and energy, I'd probably be screwing around with Linux and whatnot. I did once, but decided it wasn't worth the trouble to me.

My spare time is worth too much to me to deal with half-baked technologies.

:agree:

I was never able to sync my various cell phones and PDAs seamlessly with my Macs over the years. They always seemed to be, at worse, "Windows only" or, at best, required third party software or some complex workaround to play nice with my Macs. Address Book and iCal sit unused on my Mac because I was never able to transfer contacts and events from my electronic gadgets.

My LG phone was pretty slick when I bought it in early 2008 but since then, the effort to get music on that phone, or photos off of the phone, became too much of a PITA, so I only used it for calling and texting.

I can't wait for iPhone 5 any longer, because my old LG isn't gonna make it that long. It would be nice for once to be able to schedule events on my Mac and look up addresses if my phone isn't handy.
