    Don't know why everybody above is wondering about buying a droid. It's so obvious! BUY!
    I'm currently looking for a suitable one for me. My brother has been using android for 2 years and I think it's far more expandable than iPhone or Windows Phone.

    I'd like to see this timeline side-by-side with the iphone for comparison since the iphone is still way more popular than the android (i'm pretty sure)
