I have 3 Android devices, HTC EVO V 4G with Virgin Mobile, a Kyocera Rise as a back up and a Nexus 7 Tablet. Honestly, I'm not all that impressed. Sure, web surfing is lightning fast when it works. I had to send my Nexus 7 into ASUS because it was taking me about 45 seconds to a minute to navigate from web site to web site. To send it in, it cost me $20. ASUS told me there was nothing wrong with it initially. I said try surfing the web for 10 minutes and you'll discover the problem. They eventually replaced the main board and now all is well for the time being. The HTC EVO V 4g is finally OK since HTC provided a system update. I was getting the "radio interface shortage error" whenever I texted heavily for 5 weeks before HTC finally got around to sending my phone the update they already had.

Guess what? I like my Blackberry 9300 better than Android and all the other Operating Systems. It's reliable, clear calls, easy texting, no problems. Ok, I'll take Android for web surfing and Tunelin Radio.

Yes, I know I'm in the minority. I only wish big bumps in the road for APPLE/Google/Microsoft so a more open playing field will open up for newcomers.
