DROID vs. iPhone

[Rangerscott]

1. How are you able to get the droid for $99? The cheapest I've seen is $150 on verizon online with existing customer.

2. Unless you live in a big city, these companies dont give a shit about your service. Luckily though my non-3G verizon phone can out beat a 3G iphone on internet usage. Suck it.


I've only heard from one person that he has "never" had problems with ATT billing. I've seen some ATT bills and it's like they have chimps with number refrigerator magnets and they just re-arrange them and that's your bill cost for the month.

With that being said, iPhone is superior..... It's like a solid ingot. The Droid is just an ordinary flexible, squeaky slider phone that creaks & flexes & makes noise when you squeeze it.

So, in other words the iPhone is superior as long as you exclude the whole "phone" part.

I would say Android 2.0 vs Iphone OS is about equal with their pros and cons. The apps put iphone in front as far as smart phone though. Hundreds of thousands vs twenty thousand.

The thing with Android is there is no gatekeeper to the apps that will be available. This will give it an advantage in the long run because developers won't have to worry about pleasing Apple or AT&T when they make an app.

If you do get an iphone, make sure you buy my app, Zinger. Only $0.99.

ok, at the risk of sounding stupid and too lazy to google it can someone explain to me what 3G really is?

[Rangerscott]

From what I know, 3G is a "network" that cellphone companies use. Suppose to be fast blah blah blah.


You can't count all the iphone apps. There are tons and tons of useless apps out there.

Something that is overhyped, doesn't deliver as promised, and will be outdated pretty soon anyway.

Sounds like most of you don't use a phone as a phone anyway

A slower version of 4G.
