I moved from a crappy old phone to the Droid, and am quite happy with it. No matter what you end up with, I'd say that the differences by upgrading far outweigh which particular 'cutting edge' phone you end up going with. I didn't think much about the transition -- just aiming to phone and portable web browser. In less than a month, though, it turns out I've got: - a suprisingly decent point-and-shoot camera, as long as it's not dark - a hiking/biking/skiing GPS - a car-nav GPS - a guitar tuner - barcode scanner & product nutrition database - portable music/video library - and more! ;) Really, it's a general purpose computer that happens to be bristling with both sensors and telephony capabilities, and an almost always-on connection to the internet. Regardless of whether it's 95% as slick as it could be and more 'open' (Android) or 98% slickness level and less 'open' (iPhone), they're still pretty much equally revolutionary. (N.b. as a developer it was very nice to be able to write software for my phone from day one, without having to jump through a ton of hoops.) (Edit for bullet points.)
