I'm yet to sample the iPhone but the Android was pretty cool. I especially liked the separate keyboard and it was fun to have access to Google Maps, especially while moving around... you'll never get lost again! What do you think of it now you've had time to look at it? Hey Scott I was also given one of the Android handsets to try out for a week or two.

However, it also comes with a nice QWERTY keyboard with a dedicated numeric row -- best of the both world I guess :) I won't get an iPhone because of its lack of a QWERTY keyboard. But my biggest issue is Apple/iPhone's "openness" or lack of, whereas an open source OS like Android seems closer to my ideology (yeah I know you still need to r00t the phone to do whatever you want). @Matt,

I don't like the look of it; however I am holding out against Apple because everyone has one and the idea of touch phones for me sounds really bad.
