Good review. I purchased an Android HTC Dream last year in San Francisco and used both my iPhone and the Android side by side for a week. I loved the multi-tasking and integration with Google apps (email, chat, addressbook). The one “show stopper” for me was having to slide the keyboard out to type – meaning I couldn’t casually check my mail and hold a coffee in the other hand. I’m looking forward to seeing other Android phones on the market though!

Great Review! I watched it and I’m glad to see the iPhone get crushed by the HTC Dream!
