Now show her the iphone 4 retina display. The Droid has been shipping for 8 months with a 265 ppi display; funny how that was a meaningless spec that only geek

  But that is part of the very intelligent marketing of Apple. Your mom doesn't understand what 265 ppi is. Retina Display is the clearest display your eye can see. That she understands.

  Apple's marketing is superior to Google's (or pretty much anyone else's). I work at Apple (recent hire, admittedly), and there's a big focus on communication (part of the 'Apple Way') rather than on geeky stuff. I suspect that this isn't the case at Google. ps. I'm not saying this to act like a fanboy towards my employer (really, I'm not). Experiment: ask someone to name 3 or 4 android phone models. Watch their eyes glaze over. They may ask: "what's Android?" The point I'm making is that there's the iPhone, which most people have heard of, and then there's the mass of confusion from other manufacturers. This is the case in other product lines too, such as MacBooks vs pc laptops.
