Android has a ways to go but I get your point. I’ve used an Android phone a lot and its crashy and crude at this point.

You can always skin your iPhone to look like a Blackberry, someone released a skin for that this week. the lack of keyboard remains an issue, but if you peruse Apple patent filings, I think you will find some interesting ways they plan on outfitting iPhones with virtual keyboards.

Your final point is exactly what Java/Brew was supposed to do on phones. So much for cross-platform compatibility.

I don’t think the iPhone will stay on top for long. With Google’s Android mobile OS, the Blackberry Storm and other compariable phones on the way it will be interesting to see where things stand in 2 or 3 years.

Wouldn’t it be better to develop something the all phone’s could access through their browsers?
