Like @Caleb said, I’m also struggling. I almost went to the Apple store this week, will now ponder a bit longer. Great article. I thank Tara for taking time to cover so many of the features.

Regarding the screenshot issue, a much more simple way (and this works on the Hero) is to root the handset, a 5 minute job at most, and then install ShootMe! from the market. Takes a screenshot when you shake the handset.

My ipod touch 1G is my important iPod, Pda and alot more, plus has also been from the time I purchased it. It still work on the newest iPod system software program, and also any iphone app I might need it to run. I’m working with it to post this comment at this moment. I’d personally say it truly is a much more compared with solely an “excellent hobbyist system” — it can be an excellent iPod

Very thoughtful review.

A bit surprising to be so positive when so many tech bloggers with years of iPhone experience seem to suffer migration malaise when trying out Android.

The bottom bar does take some taking used to — and I came from a BlackBerry Curve. The learning curve for me was a lot about working with a touch screen vs. a keyboard. For iPhone people, I think moving to another touch screen would be a bit harder, because you don’t have tactile feedback correcting you or making it more obvious that you’re in a different touch world.

I’m a bit disappointed in the review because most of the features were based apon the fact that it integrates with google (cal,mail,contacts etc) when iPhone has been able to do this over air for some time now. The biggest failing for me when it came to android was that its lack of accessories (car docs, all the other things you plug it into) as well as lacking app store.

Hmm, after reading your review it seems like a lot of the features you really like are available on the iphone 3gs. I have owned all three versions of the iphone and I can definitely say that the only one that is really fast is the 3gs. I would really like to see you review the iphone 3gs vs this phone instead of using the iphone 3g as a comparison. Beyond that, great review. I really like the idea of syncing over the web instead of the desktop. I think apple will be doing this soon over a web version of the apple store.

I received an animated ecard from a friend this week and it really made my day. I decided to work out how to send some myself and now I can’t stop. They are easy, fun and don’t cost anything!

Interesting shift from an iPhone early adopter!

I have a Droid. It has many of the same features as your Nexus One, and the same interface. But I am not a huge fan of the interface. I still miss my old Palm OS.

Richard loves his Droid, though. He uses it like a third computer.

I’m still struggling if I’ll get a Nexus One or an iPhone. I was thinking of all the iTunes capabilities and the Apple hardware already integrated to the Mac environment. I was wondering if the Nexus One will limit me to enjoy all the other options already available for the Mac (movies, iTunes, etc.), not to mention that my bread-and-butter machine is a Macbook pro.
