I owned an iPhone 3G; ended up giving it away after buying myself an HTC Desire (and, later, my wife an HTC Aria). I absolutely hated the Apple walled-garden experience; emotionally, the experience was like using a borrowed phone that I couldn't set up the way I wanted to. Switching to Android felt like being back in late 90s when I started using GNU/Linux seriously ... not quite as polished, but so much more pleasant to use. Android + Samba server + MediaMonkey + Bigpond Music is a much nicer solution than iOS + iTunes for buying, storing and organizing music too.
