Hi Everyone!
I've been an iPhone user since Day 1. Right now, I have a 16GB 3G on a month-to-month contract with AT&T. (Rollover with Unlimited data plan, no cap.)
I've grown disenchanted with Apple recently due to their Draconian policies concerning iTunes, apps, etc. So, I'm looking to switch over to an Android phone. Since I live & work in Baltimore (Sprint has 4G coverage here), an Evo seems perfect for me. Got a couple of questions about the Android platform, though:
- Can you still synch and backup your phone's data on a PC/Laptop?
- Where exactly do you purchase/get apps from? (Remember, I'm used to iTunes)
- Since the last 3 years of my life has been on the iPhone platform (Contacts, calenders, texts, EVERYTHING!!) is switching platforms too much of a hassel?
Other pluses for going with Sprint are cheaper plan costs and that very fast (and apperently battery draining!) 4G network. The only real reason for me NOT switching is it's a lot easier effort-wise to just go and get an iPhone 4.
What would you do? Thanks for any opinions & suggestions!
