- it pretty much will come down to which os you prefer. I've had a BB and the OG Droid and the Droid INC. Out of those three, the Droid Inc was the best phone for me although battery life was atrocious. HTC does do a good job with getting the latest android updates but it's kind of disappointing that these new 4G phones won't be coming with the latest Android update.02-09-11 03:28 PMLike 0
- From what I've seen so far yes. I bought my wife a Motorola Droid and it does the dings for e-mails and texts and it has the LED notification flash.02-10-11 12:38 PMLike 0

Apple may do it, but they may not. They may not release another one on VZW this year because of the typical single release per carrier. There is a lot of speculation that Apple may not release the iPhone 5 for VZW and just wait till the iPhone 6 when LTE will be available (more widespread) on AT&T/VZW.
I can see Apple releasing the iPhone 5 for VZW, but I can also see them waiting as well. Either way, the iPhone is going to sell on VZW, it doesn't matter which version.
Android devices are outdated within 3-4 months of release. The iPhone since it has one model per year isn't outdated until its successor comes out. It doesn't matter if the iPhone is single core and there are hexa-core Android devices. The iPhone is the iPhone and it can only be outdated by its newer version.02-10-11 01:16 PMLike 0 -
Also, re: popup notifications. For SMS you can get Chomp or Handcent and they have popups for texts. I personally use Chomp and have it set to display a popup notification if my screen is off and locked, but if I'm using the phone for anything at all, the popup notification doesn't happen. I agree that it is annoying to get some kind of popup while you're in the middle of something else, I would hate that. It is nice when the phone is locked and I can quickly respond to a text without having to unlock the phone.
Hope this info helps.02-10-11 01:36 PMLike 0 -
Mobile hotspot? No. You can tether the iphone to a laptop using the cable..but that's the extent of it.02-11-11 12:02 PMLike 0 - iPhone 4 is a great device. It has one of the best battery and overall build quality of any smartphone, and its also very intuitive and easy to use. The reason I like the android os better is for customization and Roms. I just don't like how apple locks down their software, and no expandable memory is dumb too.
