    Haha. Totally untrue.

    Android has surpassed iPhone in marketshare in the US, however, it's mainly because EVERY phone manufacturer other than Apple is using it as their OS. Motorola, HTC, LG, Samsung, etc. Android has awesome usability and stability and is only getting better. It also has something huge backing it and dumping money into to ensure it's success: Google. Also, considering the fact that spec-wise all of the Android phones coming out this year crap all over the iPhone (dual-core processors, huge amounts of ram) it's growth will continue until we have have a similar scenario to that of Windows vs. PC.

    However, I will probably return to the iPhone for a few reasons.

    1. Size. Android phones are seemingly all headed toward the 4.3" screen, which is too big for my taste.
    2. Apps. With every single app I've used on both iPhone and Android, the iPhone version is vastly superior.
    3. iTunes integration. I listen to a lot more podcasts than I ever have before, and the ability to download directly to my phone to listen to when I'm out is really a bonus for me.
    4. 3rd party support. Try going to a friend's house and see if they have a stereo you can plug your Android phone into for music or whatever. Some may, but I have way more friends that have iPod docks than other types of adapters.
    5. The keyboard. It is leaps and bounds better than any others I have ever used (and I've tried Swype, Swiftkey and several others for Android).
