If the iPhone is stuck in the past, then Android devices are stuck in the future. It would be nice if I could transfer all my data from an Android device directly to my computer without having to send it to any third parties. iTunes may certainly be a bloated, unwieldy piece of software, but it offers some powerful functionality missing from the Android platform. As for A2DP stereo over BlueTooth, the iOS platform now supports that as well, though there may still be some limitations that make it less practical than the Android equivalent (possibly a lack of standardized method for controlling the music playback via BlueTooth - not sure if that's been added yet).

In the best case we would have the choice to sync over the cloud or via a computer. Given the hard choice of cloud vs PC, I'll take PC syncing everytime - I don't like having to go through a 3rd party for privacy and reliability reasons, not to mention that my business travels often take me to places where the cloud isn't ubiquitous yet (for example I'll be working for 5 days on a project in northern NH were there is no cell coverage). YMMV of course but the cloud model doesn't work for me right now and while I may be in the minority, I'm sure I'm not the only one.
