First blog post in almost a year…so here I go with answering a question I am getting a lot. Am I switching to Droid…or staying with the iPhone. So, for the record I am staying with the iPhone for now.

Why am I waiting.

1) Apps. 10,000 Android apps…and growing. That is great. But it’s not with ones I use regularly. Android is attacking great developers, so this is solve itself in a few months.

2) Device. Bottom line, I want a physical keyboard. I love my iPhone, but really miss the amazing keyboard that I had with my BBerry Bold. The devices out right now with Android are not good enough to pull me off the iPhone. Droid is really, really, REALLY nice. But, IMHO it is not great. The keyboard is lacking, and overall the device is not refined yet. Soon and very soon I am confidant gen2 / gen3 devices will be killer.

3) Music/Media. iTunes makes music/media sync amazingly simple. I take this for granted, I bet you do to if you are a iPhone/iPod touch user. Apple rocks a this! Android must solve this problem soon…but they don’t have a solution yet.

4) World Phone. Droid is not a world phone…no GSM sim card. This is not a killer or show stopper, I could switch devices when I travel the internationally…but I would like to have 1 device.

—>that is it, there are my 4 key reasons for not moving to Droid/Android right now.<— But I will throw #5 at you, just because lists feel better if they are 5 long and not 4.

5) Carrier. I am unsure what carrier I will be going with. Verizon, ATT, Sprint, or T-Mobile? I need great coverage and data in the states…and I need the ability to travel internationally and have data follow me…Unlimited Data across the globe. And to complicate things, I need the ability to add and remove Unlimited International Data on a month by month basis. ATT does not offer this! From my current discoveries, Verizon and Sprint can handle this with “world phones”.

So there ya go, my post about switching to Android. What I have not talked about is how amazing the platform is, how I think Android will continue to take market share from all others, and how Android will continue to attract the best developers…Nope, not in this post. Maybe later…or maybe not.
