I would be more inclined to take his "I'm outta here... moving to iOS" statement and the "seamless integration with Google's services" argument a little more seriously if the article had outlined even a short history of all Google services repeatedly failing to seamlessly integrate on the phone over a variety of situations. But one coupon, in one app, for one service, one time sounds more like someone just looking for any reason to say "screw Android... I'm getting an iPhone". Yes, he does say "countless other" apps have issues... that really isn't very specific nor does it show a pattern. I've had times when (for no apparent reason... other than maybe the phone trying to multitask too much) an app loads slow... when it worked fine before and after that. I'm not willing to accept that iPhones don't ever have similar hiccups... ever. I'm in a house divided so I get to see first hand the frustrating things that the iPhone and iPad can do.
But even that doesn't really matter to me. I hope he finds what he's looking for... whether it is with an iPhone, a Windows phone or even a new Android phone. I wish everyone luck in finding the phone/OS/carrier combo that works best for them. I'm just so glad that there are plenty of those combos for everyone to choose from.
