This reminds me of an analysis I heard on the radio yesterday.
The synopsis is that it's better to offer people less choices, because given more choices, people are more likely to be unhappy with the one they choose. Apple does a really good job of handling that.
If you were to only single out one manufacturer and line, say Motorola Droids, the chart would look exactly the same. But since there are 5-6 manufacturers offering good Android phones, it seems disappointing that there are new ones coming out right after yours. Really, it's a good thing.
I felt regret at buying the Android phone I did, as the Nexus S came out 3 months later. But you have to buy one sometime!
