I recently switched from the iPhone to Android, and every point he made I agree with -- except in reverse.
On android I have three different contact lists all with different UI and features. For example: in the phone app my features are "Search" and "Add to Speed Dial", in the texting app my options are "Search" and "Display Group", in the Contacts app I have a bunch of options(the only one of the contact lists that can add new contacts). I must physically close out my phone app in order to add a contact, and thats just silly.
The android notifications are annoying because they don't work well. Right now my mail has 5 notifications and no unread messages, as soon as I open the mail app the notifications disappear and then reappear a few minutes later. Not only that, but I probably have at least 20 other notifications since every app adds its own notifications. Sure I could go and set up each app individually to not have notifications, but I'd prefer if things just worked.
I'm pretty impartial to the back button, I was used to having it in the UI and after switching I didn't like the android's way of doing things. After months of using the android I now think this is purely a matter of personal preference.
