While the phone has cool specs, I have a beef to pick with Ice cream sandwich and the overall OS structure they are going for.

I saw a bunch of different articles on it and the features and layout, and so far it looks like a big mishmash of other OS's. I see some WP ideas in there, with mostly iOS being copied and even some WebOS thrown in there for good measure.

It just looks like a stylistic and thematic mess to me...even more so than Gingerbread and Honeycomb.

Whenever apple comes up with new firmware or new features they always make those super awesome cool aid videos with smooth talking people explaining how it is done. One can make the best product but unless it marketed a certain way and the features are explained and hyped i think no one will care (IMO). 

This is true...other than for Windows Phone. I think this is the first time in the history of technology that Microsoft made something fundimentaly different from everyone and it actually works.

Not once in the past do I recall a microsoft product making a statement to apple..."no apple, you are wrong, this is actually how it should be done"...despite their cool people marketing ads. :)
