The fact that youve gone through a lot of android phones is funny.

Yeah, I know, having options sucks doesn't it?
Glad my RAZR doesn't have this Carrier IQ stuff.

Some people do buy phones at full price - I could afford to until i started to raise a family.

I'm in the same boat, the RAZR replaced my DROID 1,I used my upgrade. I MIGHT buy the Iphone 5 off contract, but I gotta see it first. But generally, 600 for a phone? I'd usually rather spend 300-400 for an android MP3 player (Cowon D3 Plenue, Sony Walkman when they release an Android version, Samsung Galaxy mp3 player) or an Ipod Touch.

I can buy any phone I want, full price. But instead, I choose an iPhone. I can resell it and only pay maybe a $100-$200 for the next one.

Can't do that with Android.

Yup, having options to get a phone that'll lose support in six months must be fun.

I just got an update for my droid 1, I'm afraid your argument doesn't hold water.
And options are what Android is all about.
Show me 12 Iphones, I will give you the same ugly icons arranged differently with different backgrounds, but the apps keep me coming back.
Show me 12 Android phones, and I will show you 12 completely different setups, and the apps are coming.

This is NOT BOUT THE IPHONE. And the iphone too have built it software that tracks you also

Didn't you flip a lid with Apple tracking?

Actually... not really. Except for the fact that once again, that file was secret, insecure, not deletable, served no purpose that anyone could discern, and Apple denied it at first by proxy of Steve Jobs.

So... yeah.
