iPhone versus Android - You Choose

I catch a lot of flak from iPhone and iPad loving lawyers who have, as a group, gone to the Appleverse for their mobile computing. I admit my preference for Android phones and tablets, and the benefits of using the Google universe. However, I am always hearing iPhone users brag about the simplicity and beauty of the interface, and the ease of use that standardization of apps brings. I challenge each of you to spend 13 minutes watching this guy actually perform the same functions on each. Then, make your own choice. I won't even mention the fact that the screen on the Nexus is clearly larger and better than the iPhone. And, you won't be swapping the battery on the iPhone when it dies. I know, you can add a cradle to the iPhone with extra battery power. Just what you need, a heavier, bulkier iPhone.

I have heard this debate in my office several times. I am leaning very strongly toward the Android. Sadly I am still rocking a Blackberry Pearl. My wife just got an Android phone and likes it so far. How does Blackberry stack up?

Thanks

Blackberry is dead for all but the large enterprise clients who need the "security" and control. Android and iPhone are not your only choices, however. You should go to the local big box store and look at the new Windows phones. If you can stomach AT&T, of course.
