One of the best things about the IPhone was it’s ability to play quality games and the large amount of software titles that were available in the app directory. You could use the phone as a replacement for the PSP and not miss a step. Now the Android phones have caught up and maybe even surpassed what the IPhone can do. Especially the latest hardware that has been released. The hardware has been increased so that 3D games run on the platform at higher speeds than the IPhone and almost comparable to a playstation 2. With a combination of an increase of the CPU and the GPU, this proves that Google is taking gaming on the platform very seriously.

Another advantage that Apple had with their IPhone, was the amount of software titles that were available for the phone. They had almost all of the big name publishers creating games for their phones exclusively. But the Android phones are closing this gap as well. The library of games is still not as large as the library for the IPhone but it is getting there. All of the major publishers are creating games for both platforms right now. They see the Android as a proven technology now, and they do not want to miss getting on the bandwagon. Plus, with the hardware that the Android has now, publishers can make their games look closer to the console versions better than they can with the IPhone.

Publishers are getting serious when it comes to the line of Android based phones. They see it as a serious rival to the IPhone. But not only the IPhone, but the Nintendo DS and Sony PSP as well. If you want to be able to game mobile without carrying two devices with you, then take a serious look at an Android phone. Your next game machine might be a cell phone.

Moving on to the Iphone and the G1, buying a phone and a two year agreement not only locks you down with one company for what seems like way too long but if you get a nice phone like the Iphone your going to spend a good piece of a paycheck just buying it. So research is a have to if you want to make it worth your while. And don’t go to the site advertising the phone like AT&T for the Iphone or all you will hear is the good stuff about the phone. Look instead at reviews from people and companies that have already used and tested the product that you want. Theres always two sides to the story.

For instance The Iphone has been a coveted phone for so many people including myself for some time because its got a sweet touch screen and lots of storage for music and acceptable web browsing, But what they don’t tell you in their advertisements is the lack of camera options, the poor sound quality on the speakers, etc.

I stumbled across a blog about 25 things wrong with the Iphone,…since the original 25 there are well over a hundred complaints about it added on. Now we all know that Theres no perfect phone that satisfies everyone out there. Some of these complaints are just wishes for more applications and whatnot. But this is exactly my point! With the G1 there are limitless opportunities for anyone to work with the software to adapt to anyone and everyones wants and wishes. It was pointed out previously that Google has even offered $10,000,000 in prizes for the best applications made for android. Encouraging and promoting the fact that this is not a locked down deal ..more like the sky’s the limit.

Personally I’m into photography and I don’t think there are any phones out there that can take a super nice picture but the nicer they get the happier I am, and I’ve heard nothing but bad about the Iphone camera so far….The G1 on the other hand has a 3.2 megapixel camera on it which is i believe the best out there so far. I of course haven’t used it yet but it sounds pretty good.
