Re: Completly off topic.
Any one that has siri is it really worth to get an iphone just for that?
I had an iphone now have android. Samdung handset Hardware not as solid as iphone. os not nearly as streamlined as ios.
But it does the job. The voice activated droid apps that i have tried for it are horrible.

You can use all iPhone apps on the iPad without re-buying, so if you think you are going to eventually get both, go with the iPhone.Jamie79 wrote:Android had a different version, bad reviews I didn't like it. I don't want to hijack this thread but my carrier (sprint) is rumored to be getting the iPhone any suggestions if I should stay with the Android or get the iPhone, seems most of yall use iphone. Just curious on feedback.
Also unrelated, but I bought an awesome astronomy app for my decade old goto telescope that along with a $70 cable let's me point my phone (or tablet) at the sky, move it around to find a planet or nebula on its screen, and then press a button to slew my scope around to aim directly at the celestial object. Considering that I use the same device as an anchor alarm, chartplotter, TV remote, and navi for my car, it's no wonder that they're killing it in the market.
WOW, you pay for apps? LOLz...
but yeah, lots more apps are compatible for apple os than the droids...
so far
(ps: google SKY..... is still free! and awesome!)
