Well, after hearing that the iPhone is staying on AT&T, I decided to get the HTC Incredible. It truly is incredible. I think this is definitely an iPhone killer... the only real advantage the new iPhone 4 will have is that front-facing camera. Here are some comparisons:
Phone: - - - - - iPhone 3GS - - - - - HTC Incredible
Processor: - - - 600mhz - - - - - - - 1ghz
Storage: - - - - 8-32gb internal - - -8gb internal w/SD slot (up to 32gb cards accepted)
Flash?: - - - - - Nope - - - - - - - - - YEP!!
Hulu?: - - - - - Nope - - - - - - - - - YEP!!
Word-learning?:Nope - - - - - - - - - YEP!!
Battery life is pretty good too... better than i expected. I can easily make it through a day on one charge.
Not to mention how awesome Android OS is. Highly customizable. The best part is that I can save words in the predictive text so it's not always auto-correcting everything wrong. When I had my iPhone, it would ALWAYS change my wife's name from "Jenna" to "Korea" and it would never capitalize it. I just saved a bunch of special words and can type much more seamlessly than i ever could on the iPhone. It's also fast... blazing fast.

Yes, I have not had a dropped call yet, but I've only made about a half-dozen calls so far. Verizon is pretty solid so I don't anticipate any problems. I have heard that HTC's antenna's aren't the strongest, but I haven't had any issues there either.

Antenna? What kind of piece of crap still has an antenna?

But can you send and receive phone calls?
Reminds me of the watch in Spy Kids that does everything but tell time ... they ran out of room for the clock function.

Dude, every phone has an antenna, otherwise they wouldn't be able to connect to the wireless service. But most of the antennas in today's phones are designed and concealed within the phone. Now, the tape-on ghetto antennas with the squggly wires in the middle on your beat-up 92 civic (which you still think is sporty) is a "piece of crap" antenna.

I used my cell phone about 3 months ago and only my wife has the number, does that mean I don't have a life or that I do?

Wait a minute. You have a cell phone and actually only use it for its intended purpose - making phone calls? WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU. Get with the times. Now take your phone, get on the highway, get up to around 70, then set you phone on the steering wheel and starts making useless text message to your wife and friends. That's pretty much what half the people on the road do these days. Man, you're so old school.

If he really wanted to get with the times, he would use his phone to jump on the web to his twitter account, and tweet that he's driving on the highway...

You mean "using the same stupid jokes from '97".

P.S. civics were never cool.

Actually, I typed my response while driving down the highway during rush hour traffic. That's why you see a couple of words misspelled.

If you're a geek like me you have a small array in the back of your car for the random moment, you can't get a call out and you need to dial 911...
