I just got an Android phone, and am very excited about it. It’s amazing to be able to have one little thing that make calls, take pictures or video, direct me to a location, show me a map of the area I’m interested in, keep my shopping list, record and edit audio, send me streams of music that I almost always like, and give me access to the radio shows I like, and do it wherever I go (except inside large cement buildings). I’m sure it can do a lot more, but those are the main things I need right now.
I heard yesterday that the iPhone can not run more than one app at once, which seems odd to me. Also, the iPhone is limited to one phone service, which also seems odd. They said the service might be expanded to Verizon.
My phone is not perfect, of course. Some of the apps will crash and I have to reboot the entire thing in order to get them to work. Sometimes it can’t find my memory card. My salespeople says it’s a good idea to take the battery out and reinstall it every week or two.
It is set up to have a constant connection with my personal and work email, and I can open another email account at the same time, which is better than my computer can do without opening multiple browsers.
I know iPhone has a lot of cachet, but my MyTouch is pretty darn cool, too.
