Smartphone battle is heating up

[mysterioustko]

You guys saying that Android is so much more advanced than iOS,

A girl next door up to anything...

Can you tell me please, specifically what do you require from iOS that Android does? What Android's functionality specifically do you prefer over iOS'?

I'm not trying to argue, I'm just interested.

Without getting into everything I'll give one simple thing that I like having: functionality. My G2X home screen is much more functional than that of iphone. On my home screen I have a clock/weather widget that also gives me alerts when there is severe weather coming (I found out about a tornado watch we were having before they even broadcast it on television), and I have two widgets with rss feeds (One for the forex market newswires and one with tech and local news). So just from looking at my home screen I know what's going on in the currency market (which effects my money since I trade the market), I know what to expect out of the weather (not just now but what's about to happen later on), and I know if there is anything going on around me locally. I get all that without ever having to leave my home screen. That is a functionality you cannot get on iphone. There are other things I like better too, but that's just one.
