Moon man, I'm a long time AAPL stock holder and have made a lot of money with it. A few months ago, I got my first iPhone (a 4S, off eBay) and am really shocked how far behind Android they are.
I have yet to find anything really neat on iOS that isn't on Android. That's not to say there isn't anything on iOS that's head and shoulders above Android, just I haven't found it in the things I'm interested in using on the phone.
And then there are very annoying drawbacks in iOS like can't change default map app, text message app, dialer app, browser. So I end up using 2 different apps for the same function and get confused which app I'm in... You can't just auto-update your apps, you have to go in and do it manually. You're a nerd if you actually read the release notes... I just hit the update button like every other regular human does, but it's annoying to have one more thing to always be fussing around with on my phone. You can't use Siri to send texts through these free online services like Google Voice... No widgets as you mention. Apps can't set them up as a service, so things like a data usage counter, you have to remember to restart every time you reboot your phone. There are these really great Android apps like llama and Tasker that aren't available on iOS because Apple has elected not to make the API's available...
Probably the best thing I've found is the Twitter apps are better on iOS. I think the Yelp app is better too, but I wasn't using Yelp heavily before I got my iPhone.
There is the issue of "it just works" that's got me holding off on stuff like moving my parents to Android. But the last time I got a new Android phone was their Ginger Bread release. And getting things working like I wanted was a hassle. Now that Android has moved a couple of versions past that, and I'm really annoyed with iOS, I think I'm getting a Galaxy Nexus. Is setting that thing up goes really smoothly, I may just move my parents over there.
Also, I'm waiting to this summer to decide, when iOS 7 comes out. How far behind Apple is in a lot of stuff is really shocking. Now that I got an iPhone, I see why they fired that Scott Forstall guy. I'm waiting to see what Jonny Ives can do before ai move my parents to Android.
