I will NEVER return to Android though! Geeks might love it, but I don't, even though I am a geek too! At least Apple forces the phone carriers to allow updates to iOS, unlike Android which might sit at v2.3 forever on a phone. Plus Apple prevents phone carriers from rewriting iOS, unlike Android where each carrier and each phone manufacturer seem to write their own interface and populate the phone with apps no one wants and which you cannot easily get rid of. No thanks, I'll stick with iOS. Yes, I know you can jailbreak virtually anything, but let's face it, most people don't even know what "to jailbreak" means much less how to do it! And I for one know how but don't want to. Also, with iOS assured to be current on compatible devices, and with Apple strictly controlling the devices, there is much less likelihood of an app not working well. With Android apps there is an infinite number of hardware platforms and Android versions, so apps sometimes just don't work on your device. Add to that the total lack of quality control. Again, no thanks, I'll stick with iOS.

I agree with many of your points. But as far as iOS assured to be current on compatible devices, I don't see it that way. iOS7 will support the iPhone 4, but not all functions will work. The say was true for iOS6. What good is claiming that the iPhone 4 will run iOS7 if not all functions (and their respective APIs) won't work?
