iOS notifications being less than elegant /nearly useless is a well known, well accepted fact. If it works for you that just means you choose to either ignore the issues or have a vastly different usage pattern. Google up to understand what you are missing :) Sync - I can upload my photos to Picasa, install and configure apps, create contacts right on my phone without going anywhere the computer - but that's not the difference. The difference comes when I need to switch phones or restore after an update - piece of cake in case of Android. All of the above is automagically installed after I sign in to the phone - even the apps and their settings. Can you do anything with iOS if there was no computer/iTunes involved? Can you wirelessly sync music/videos/photos - is there AirSync for iOS available? I can look around for iPhone users and find many of them running the same version of the iOS the device was shipped with. Not so with Android's OTA mechanism. Android is light years ahead of iOS when it comes to always connected devices that require least use of the computer. I stopped using iOS devices since I sold my iPod touch which ran iOS 4. I was referring to Autocorrect and predictive text options on the virtual keyboard itself - on Android as I type 'Ha' for example - I get Happy | Hat | Hay as the options to tap on the top to complete the word. If I then misspell it to say 'Haty' I then get autocorrect to 'Bath' in the center. As far as I know the iOS keyboard doesn't work like this and it really felt a backward step when I tried. Plus I got Swype Bud! (pun intended). Ability to Voice Input everywhere is yet another thing I missed on iOS. Also the way back button works on Android. Also the multitasking is real and full-throttle on Android with no silly limitations. iOS really does feel like a step or two backwards to me in most departments.
