A suggestion for fanboys of either persuasion..

I was looking at the list of devices above, and it reminded me how often I'm disappointed by the quality of participants on tech podcasts.

I won't name and shame here, but Apple guys seem to be worse than the more 'open tech' inspired Android enthusiasts. The worst of them are out and out apologists for every Apple fault, and even talk of "Apple Quality", (sorry, but be honest, how many of you have not had or heard of someone with an iPhone who has trouble with the hardware buttons?

Another thing I hear, which makes me groan, is when they infer that if you already have an 'investment' in iPhone apps it makes sense not to try a device from the competition.. a weak argument in my opinion, except for the unfortunate poor.

If you don't make an average investment on both sides of the equation how on earth can you hope to give intelligent advice?! Anyway, apps on both platforms are absurdly cheap.. it isn't going to cost more than a cup of coffee for an 'expensive' app, which you get to use on multiple devices.. get real!

And then there is the supposed question of the quality of Android apps..  I have approximately the same number of apps on both platforms, about 130 I think, and the only application I use on my iPad (iPhone) which I haven't yet found a match for on Android, is Momento, a daily journal. There are no doubt alternatives, but I'm looking for one that can be accessed via Dropbox from both platforms..

Thats enough rant from me. If you want more, try a few tech podcasts ;)
