The iPhone 4g better have some seriously dope features otherwise they will be losing ground quickly. It takes Apple 2-3 years to come out with new iPhones and Android is more nimble for developers. Puts Apple at a disadvantage IMO.
- Plus there is only one model of iPhones and presumable 10 models with Android OS.DrBombay
- imo, Android is a stable and more versatile OS all around. more popular at this point, no, but...JazX

- Google develops Android for free. It's an advertising opportunity for them.ukit
- It's only 'free' to the consumer. Every Android Phone sold is less money to competitors.orrinward
- leading to increased profit for Google. They potentially suffocate the opposition with minimum financial outlay.orrinward
