    What is the work on the street about this? Is it going to be as good as some are saying? It does sound like there will be some nice features other phones don't have available.

    places like Gartner Group and other industry analysts say Android OS is going to supplant iPhone within about 2yrs... I know a guy that was on the development team for this, he tells me "you aint seen nothin yet" (he can't divulge details for legal reasons)... my next phone will likely be Android OS

    I haven't heard much about it. I'm sure I'll check it out sooner or later though.

    Is it supposed to be the new craze?

    It will not out sale the iPhone. Doesn't matter if it's better or not, the iPhone will still be king.

    There are better mp3 players than the iPod, but the iPod is by far the #1 selling.

    I bought a Zune. lol. I hate the I-whatever products, because of their annoying commercials.

    raceway works for Verizon and according to a text I got from him this AM, the new Android powered phones are supposed to be the shizz. I'm hearing lots of good things about them, but of course they said lots of good things about the Palm Pre which, although it has decent sales, is nowhere near killing the iPhone, or even stepping on its toe.

    Ever hear of a "cold turd on a paper plate"? That is what the IPhone will be when this one comes out. Give it a little time. You will see.;)
