You almost sound like you're describing the Ford / holden rivalry! LOL!

Will be interested to see if it has much of an affect on the pricing of the iphone if and when it is released into the Australian market.

I guess in my mind there are three reasons I would be happy to stick with Iphone 3G (not 3Gs) for another 12 months, and wont even consider the google phone.

1. Just because someone is a good dentist does not mean they can paint. Googles skillsets have been around search engine domination, not mobile devices.Apple has a head start on mobile devices.
2. The Iphone brand has 2 + years of application development as a head start. It will take the google phone brand time to build all of the same level of support
3. My iphone meets all my needs and has a great user interface.

Get your Apple coloured blinkers off will you. If it were not for pre existing controlled open source software (read BSD), Apple would not have OSX as it is today or the iPhone.

Sure, but HTC, DOPOD and IMATE are all related in some way, and surely my Imate JasJam was just about the worst smart phone known to man?

im soo over touch screen phones and phones with so many damn gadgets you never actually need!!!
i hate them, all of them regardless of brand, but i hate the iFail the most because of the fan-boys that have/want one and all those others that lust over one because its 'the best' phone ever, it isn't its damn good but not the best.

I wish my K800 SE still worked properly and the joystick wasn't stuffed because id still be using that.
