Day 2 of my new iphone 4s, and I'm lovin' it. I don't care about the lack of 4g where I am, this thing is superfast. Plus, siri makes it all that much more amazing.
This highlights the difference between Android and iPhone. Android is built to be open and accessible. Apple products are built to be closed and restrictive.Here's a relevant question that might help. I've had an iPad and iPod for awhile now. The iPad caused me to discover how tightly Apple controls it, and hiw they DON'T want you putting your stuff on it, only their stuff.
So the question is, how stuck are you with Samsung and HTC? I mean, especially regarding your own files (I have tons of docs - GKC, Lewis, Belloc, Charles Williams, etc), songs and what-not. And are there as many apps as Apple?
Hi All,
That two-year contract is up, and it's time to upgrade from my beloved Blackberry Torch....two years later and my baby is already outdated....
Kate and I are looking at either I-Phone 4s or a Samsung Galaxy II....
What do you guys think? Any Orthodox smartphone input you can give me?
Enjoy your new phone!
Rus: If you want to get documents onto your iPad/iPhone, there are ways to do that - kindle and ibooks will both take pdfs, or you can convert documents to epub which both those apps can read too. I use kindle 90% of the time

Hey Gurney, hope you are liking your new phone.
We are doing the same debate - although after watching a few youtube videos about Siri (IP5) vs. SVoice (GSIII) the decision is pretty clear. The SVoice doesn't compete at all. Siri is way smarter. I think I might make her voice British if I can, LOL!
All the customers and cellular employees at Target, where I got my HTC phone, were telling me that Siri really ATE UP their data FAST! So watch out there! But, I've heard she'll do your dishes for you and mow the lawn so there are advantages....I'm hoping that we can eventually have Siri take over the parenting for some of the deadbeat moms and dads at my school!
Thanks, Kyriaki.
Yes, I know about PDFs and that docs can be converted. The main problem, I think, is doing them one-by-one on hundreds of documents, when I just want to throw folders that are extensively organized onto the reader.
Gurney - no joke, just a big smile. I have a droid and love it despite being an apple person in every other device
Some of my friends, when I told them I bought the droid, acted like I quit pulling for the Giants and became a Dodgers fan or something....something unthinkably awful! LOL...All my friends are I-Phone Apple people.....
I have a weird gene in me that HATES the crowd, hates the general trends and hipster collective cool "everybody is doing it, man!" stuff. All my friends for years were Ford or Chevy guys. I bought Dodge! LOL....My friends were all raging liberals or hardcore conservatives, I voted independent and for either party. Many folks I know are DC and hate Marvel or Marvel and hate DC, I like both. Everyone I know is a meat-eater, I'm a vegetarian. All my Mac-obsessed friends, and I liked PC's. Most people I know are dog people, I'm cat. Catholic? Protestant? I'm Orthodox, by choice....I'm just a guy that bucks the trends. I HAD to not buy an I-Phone! Everyone loves 'em! LOL
