J.P.
I went from a blackberry to an iphone, so did my hubby. We like that there is "facetime" on the iphone. This is wonderful when we are away from each other (like now). It is video chat. The iphone has free aps too, I guess it depends on what you are looking for. My stepson has an android and likes it. He can upgrade his phone, but he is happy with his droid.
I would pull upboth phones on the net and compare the features. I did this on the Verizon site. I ended up getting the iphone it seemed to do more then the androids, IMO.
