Almost all major apps are on both platforms. Bank of America is no better on iPhone than it is on Android and vice versa. it's all rhetoric nonsense. Each have a few apps that one has the other does not. But almost all of the major apps one would really use are across both platforms and run nice.
It's all a bogus numbers game. You do know the Apple counts each one of it's 10,000 Tip apps as individual apps.

i wish your statement were true, but it's not. for example, pocketmoney... it's a wonderful program on ios, but the android version is a joke. from ui to functionality. i can't even get it to import the same qif files correctly that the ios version has no problems with.
grocery iq (at least the last time i tried it) had a more tablet centric layout on ios than the hd version did on android.
there are other examples, but these are all i can think of right now.
games - no contest. android does have copies of the casual games, but the serious high graphic quality games aren't there... yet, hopefully. there are some 3 or 4 games that are specifically made for the tegra2 but don't seem to look as good as ios games running the unreal engine.
android still has catching up and needs to incorporate some standards. sure we've got the most free apps, but how many of them are junk. until we've got more paid quality apps then we've not caught up.
