[QUOTE="Captain Jack, post: 903567, member: 243342"] This is a very big question and should probably be asked as "what can an Android OS do that iOS can't". There is no simple answer to this as it's usually quite personal and many Internet wars have broken out debating this. Let's just say they do more or less the same thing but in different ways. They are also aimed at slightly different markets. iPhones do what they say on the tin - it works but it's closed source and, unless you Jailbreak it, is limited to doing things the "Apple way" (think a closed source receiver OS, such as Sky's, Humax or any non-Enigma2 receiver). Android is open-source and is highly customisable (a la Enigma2 receiver!). Different people prefer different things, so I'll leave it at that. [/QUOTE]
