iphone or Android?

[basingstoke]

So, I am getting a new phone. Currently I have a PAYG basic phone that I really only use to text, make calls and sometimes listen to music.

I want to check email, use the internet, play games. I also know people with fancy phones who do all sorts of interesting other things that I might do if I were able to IYSWIM.

My heart says iphone, but my DH head says HTC Desire.

What do you reckon?

Dd2 is very fond of VEVO a free app that let's you watch official music videos without trawling through utube. You still have to pay iTunes if you want them off line, but she generally sticks her iPod on its dock and dances in her room where she has wifi.

I will be back here very soon so people with android can tell me which apps to go for and which to avoid. My galaxy s2 is due within 2 weeks. I am now officially excited over a gadget for the first time in my life.

ooh, nutella please tell us how you find the galaxy s 2, it is one of my shortlists

i have the samsung galaxy s2 and still haven't really made friends with it. i keep having problems syncing and haven't been able to get twitter to work on it. i need to sit down with someone who knows their way round and get them to help me get the best out of it!

Adore my Samsung and all my iPhone friends have had a play and actually are jealous of it. I'm vvv happy with my choice.

Samsung Galaxy S, just to clarify

I will when it arrives.

I actually wanted the HTC Desire Z, but it wasn't available for my network from where I have a friend working and have a lifetime 50% discount of line rental per month so the S2 was the next option.
