Google seem to make the updates fast but then we have to wait ages for the updates due to the carriers. Then it's only the very latest devices that actually get these updates "officially" while the rest of us have to go the rooted way.I have to admit, WP7 does look impressive. The problem with Android is that there are too many Apps that go on the Market that don't necessarily work well with the phone. Plus you have the problem with all these different types of phone which require more or less power to operate the OS. So both the phone manufacturers and Android are to blame - if the phone companies cannot make a clean cut edit to the OS or the phone to work well then they're doomed to failure, as well as the individual app developers. The good thing about Android is that Google work fast enough to make new updates to the OS which make it ahead of the competition, but they're limited to what the phones the OS is going on are capable of. Hopefully Android/Google (whatever) tackle this problem. WP7 seems like the happy medium between iOS and Android. Obviously I won't explain my views on iOS/Apple as it would be a wasted thread
I personally wouldn't consider iOS - one, because I am against their ludicrous pricing for a phone that really isn't that good. I also dislike everyone going mental over a phone (prefer not to follow the 'craze').
WP7 looks impressive, but I don't full understand the interface - all the random sized red tiles seem strange?

I think its based on the colour of the network.
i like the htc design on phones in general, it's quite good looking. if i hadn't have got an iphone 4 i'd have probably gone for a htc, they look really smoooooooth and hot
I don't like to blow my own trumpet, but I did actually blow my own trumpet..
There is a range of colours the tiles can be, although depending on the network will depend on what the default colour will be at the start but still changeable.
So:
Red = Vodafone
Blue = O2
Orange = Orange

I like how blue is the only one that has the word blue coloured in as wellThere's an interesting article on Mashable about Windows Phone 7 and how it should start chucking out updates to keep it up with the competition. I'll see if I can find it.
