Adelle, I have a Motorolla Droid and it does not come with pinch and zoom but the dolphin browser app fixes that! I love my Droid. the only improvement I would make is to ditch the keyboard. It makes the phone bulky and I don’t know anyone who actually uses it.

Adelle, my Android phone which is an HTC Eris has always had pinch to zoom in and out features, as well as a number of gestures. I even have gesture search installed, which lets me write letters with my fingers and it transcribes those into digital text, and searches accordingly. It had those features when my Eris was running 1.6, and it still has them now that I have Android 2.1.

Let’s listen to two ppl play a piano. Both are very good. One has better technical skills and might be able to play things that the other can’t. But… The other is a master performer, he has presense. When he plays you listen. When he plays he moves you. I have no doubt your phone is great and you can point to the “proof” — but I have a spirtual relationship with my iPhone. If you want a great utility or communication tool go with Droid or Blackberry, but if you want a life changing experience there is only the iPhone.

On the whole, yes, Android is better. But, their apps market still needs more work…and I miss being able to zoom in and out using simple finger motions. But, hey!, I bet Google will fix these types of problems faster than Apple!

YES!! I recently got a Motorola Droid and I couldn’t be happier. Android is amazing and like you, I haven’t once wished I had an iPhone instead. This coming from the gal who wanted an iPhone pretty bad and felt like I was settling for a Droid. No way! Best choice I could have made.

The people I know who own Android phones love them.

I’m on the other side of the same coin. I’ve looked at what Android offers and while its pretty cool, its not been compelling enough to get me off the iPhone.

You go, girl. I recently rooted my Android G1 and feel like I have a whole new phone. Try that with an iPhone and see what you end up with.
