VZW network getting hit by Droid X fever – finally sympathy for AT&T and the iPhone?

Cloud computing hit me at school (hard! in the nose!), and nobody could name it.

        Wow, another bash Android podcast, go figure. Is it the fear of true competition or just a desire to feel more secure in your flawed product. even took a little time to bash BB. This is why so many took so much glee in hyping the Apple issues over the last month. The douchebag or technically inept users who who flock to the iphone in droves. There is so much positive about a platform such as Android or even the new Windows phones that can be highlighted, yet every week douchebags on podcast like this one and TiPB feel the need to highlight the flaws while making every excuse in the book for the flaws of their own darling phone and the company that makes it. I’d expect better from longtime smartphone users. Have fun hiding your beautiful new phone in a case to make it work properly while telling every person who sees your iphone that its not a flawed product. Realize that millions are choosing Android, far more that those choosing iphone, yet they may want to listen to a podcast such as yours for useful insight without having their chosen platform bashed week after week.

        I’m really not sure why you feel we bashed Android. It’s still at the top of the list of what I want for my next gadget.

        @Lucious,

        Feel free not to listen. I have been programming computers since the early 80′s, have developed and managed enterprise software solutions, and have used mobile Operating systems since the inception of Palm OS and Pocket PC. At this time in my life, the iPhone is exactly what I want in a mobile device and does everything I need it to do personally (Syncing MobileMe, and MS Exchange and Professionally (Citrix remote) I will call you out on your “technically inept” comment and challenge to to prove me otherwise.

        The name of the podcast is called the “ConvertCast” and talks about our experiences about making the conversion from other platforms to what we are using now, which as you so “eloquently” put is the iPhone. As far as other platforms is concerned because of my interest in the mobile space I like to familiarize myself with other OS’es. As a matter of fact, I spend almost as much time listening and reading Android Central and the Android guys website. That being said, I have my issues with Android in it’s current iteration and is not the platform for me.

        And btw, come back when Android as a platform has more marketshare than the iPhone. Until then, stop talking trash and move along.

        Don’t let the door hit you in the Arse on the way out.
