Android=World Smart Phone Domination
So we all know that Apple iPhones are the cool kid smart phone on the block right now. The phone design, UI, and app store are what formed the current smart phone scene. But seeing the current growth of the Android platform things are about to change. I’m not going to quote exact industry percentages but simply try to prove a point. Here is the newest google numbers from the Google I/O conference. http://techcrunch.com/2010/05/20/android-numbers/
I’m an apple fan boy (iPhone 3G S, Macbook) but I can see Android taking over the smart phone world. Its only a matter of time. If my dad has a Droid Eris soon the whole world will have an Android device.
What do you think? Will Apple continue to be the leader in smart phones or will Android surpass them?
My thoughts on the Apple iPad Good:
* Price (but with some bad)
* 10hr Battery Life, a month of standby
* Ability to use existing apps from the app store.
* iTunes integration for music and video
* iBook app store
* Re-designed Mail, Calender, Contacts, iPhoto, and iLife apps
* Youtube
* 3g and Wifi
* Keyboard dock, desk dock, and iPad Case
* Bluetooth keyboard connectivity
* Camera Connection Kit
Bad:
* No camera
* 3g vs. Wifi pricing
* AT&T
* So far no external video output
* iPhone/iPad OS
Comment Time!

disagree with what I thought of the iPad.
