Possibly going from Iphone to Android - Page 2

I've had a Droid Incredible since it's release and it's all I need and more. I've recently went to a Gingerbread ROM and it's still running strong and see no need to want an upgrade anytime soon. The Android development community is huge and is adding a lot of life to Android phones.

I've had a couple of BB's, an iPhone 3G, and now an Android phone (Samsung Vibrant). Personally, I absolutely love my android phone. Granted, It was only stock for about 2 hours and I change the ROM's/Kernels constantly. But it does everything I need and I can "tinker" with it to keep things interesting.

Check out Windows Phone 7. It is worth a look, especially if you synch e-mail with Exchange (work). They are taking a big bite out of both Android and iPhone sales.

The hardware is cool, no doubt. However, I disagree on a number of fronts here.

Email push for exchange is available on all platforms now. Sales of Windows phone 7 are dismal, actually and wont be touching Android or iPhone anytime soon.

Keep in mind, you will pay a little more premium for Windows Phone 7 because you are paying for the license as well. This is not the case for Android and some would argue either way with the iPhone.

Push is available, but I have had frequent tickets opened by my Android and iPhone users regarding mail synchronization. Not one from my Windows Phone users. They are pretty equal in number.
