exceptional and out-performs the iphones

Excellent phone for mail access, internet, document reader etc and many other applications. more of the applications are free on the android phones than they are on the iphone.I used the iphone for a few day after recommendations from friends. I found the iphone to be too restrictive and you are locked to Itunes for almost everything , there is no drag & drop facility. The Iphone becomes a little more flexible when you have jailbroken it. However ther are still so many issues that I came accross with the iphone , that it was annoying and to solve simple things like deleting all of my message in one go from the iphone, well you can't do it, you have to do it one by one, then you have to search for an application to delete them all in one go. Iphone is annoying and so far behind in terms of functionality, I am baffled at why so many people by them.Anyway I wanted something of that nature but a little more advanced. The HTC was also a recommendation and so far it has been almost perfect. I say that because there are usually always some little things that you might not like, and that is the speakerphone. Whilst it gives a reasonable level of sound and quality,I just feel it could have been better and I make my comparison with some of the nokia phones. The screen can be a little too sensitive. Other than that Its fast its packed with features, its logical to use and setup, wifi is fast screen quality is excellent, all in all is is a fantastic phone and far better that an Iphone. ALSO WATCH OUT Iphone bluetooth does not let you connect to anything except headsets and possibly a pc, even if you jailbreak and install bluetooth apps, you will have problems. The ANDROID phones like the HTC its not a problem, connect to almost anything you want via bluetooth. I use it for my Sony car stereo, handsfree and music streaming, no problems. The Iphone did not do this
