Neither of them i trust. What i don't like about Apple is the Jobs and his sanctimonious pronouncements and gloating.

Meh, I recently got an iphone 4 and am very happy with it-first Apple product since the Apple II we had when I was a teenager. Been with M$ ever since though including my upgrade last fall to a new HP desktop with windows 7 which I am very happy with too. But hey, don't let your personal dislike of personalities like Gates and Jobs or larger corporate entities like Google prevent you from possibly enjoying some great products.

I do think competition is a good thing and have always liked Nokia phones-except the last model I had before I got the iphone last month. I may pick one up as a secondary phone-a simple model with prepaid card-for emergencies or for when family etc. come to visit to avoid roaming.
