You do understand that Android does all those better right? I even have a finger print scanner on my Atrix 4G lol. My phone is slick as shit too and takes good pictures or HD videos. I mean shit, I can have mumble and vent on it lol, iPhone doesn't even have good options for those.

I have a Motorolla Milestone (Droid) as well which I used for about 4 months before windows phone came out last year. My feelings about android are mixed.
On one hand, yeah it does all that and then some. Its a very robust platform with abilities upon abilities.
On the other hand, user experience and features depend on ones willingness to spend time on setting them up. If you invest hours upon hours on flashing, downloading and setting everything up, it will work well. If you just want it to work out of the box with no time invested, you may have issues doing basic things...like opening PDFs. I literally spend 30 minutes at one point trying to open a PDF which for some reason wouldn't open unless it was saved on the memory card rather than phone memory.
So I wouldn't say that it does everything "better". Just that it can do everything better if you have time make it better yourself. Out of the box I'd personally choose an Iphone over Motorolla Milestone or any android as I don't enjoy fiddling with these devices as much as I used to.

That phone is old son! Doesn't even have gingerbread on it man. I never have issues opening pdf on mine =P. Rooting is also easier and the access is much better than Jailbreaking. Also, this is a personal thing, but you already know I think the GUI is nothing short of atrocious on the new Windows phone and the upcoming Windows 8........ they really need to fire whoever designed that monstrocity and change the whole fucking thing.

Lol. Yeah its old, it ran 2.1 quite sluggish. Then I tried to instal CyanogenMod on to it and that made it actually worse so said screw it, used my nokia e71 for a month and then become an early adoper of the windows phone 7.
You may be right that newer phones are better but ill wait till they figure this Android tug and pull fragmentation out before I commit to that ecosystem again.

I personally really want to see what that new quad-core nvidia chip can do, if the performance is that much higher at the same power usage and a phone has high MP cameras to support that power, then I'd be super happy to go right to it.
