Android is the best operating system for mobile computing. The current version is Froyo. Gingerbread, which is android's next iteration will be coming out soon. The android is the operating system of choice of all major hardware designers and makers. Why? It's free! It's innovative and it's constantly being improved!
One can buy a phone made by HTC, Samsung, or Motorola. One is not tied to a control freak deciding every little aspect and detail on a phone R&D, software marketing and cellphone provider. No, with android you decide what hardware, interface and provider suits you better. There are new phones coming to the market place every other day, so the decision is yours, not his.
Also the android operating system is superior to the ios. Multitasking, document management, notifications are native and efficient; one can download apps from the Google market as well as from independent developers and sources. If you use Itunes, you can sync your media library wirelessly via bluetooth and/or wifi; and then there are all the web-based tools offer by Google. Gmail, docs, voice, talk, calendar, picasa, reader, news, and blogger and youtube integrated to the mobile experience. Data is transferred and sync over-the-air forget about phones and computers being tied down by cables, with android you are free.
If you are serious about mobile computing, then android is for you. Don't let big brother decide what you need or don't need. You want flash? you got it! and it works perfectly!. Do you need to find your way? you go it! Google maps, Google navigation and Google my tracks; do you need to find your way in the sky? you got it! Google Sky Map!.
