I gave up on smartphones when Qwest (yeah, I know *Qwest*) got out of  
the business. For US$60 per month I got 1700 voice minutes and  
unlimited data with tethering. The phone was an HTC running WinMo.

Until one of the providers offers either an iPhone or Droid with  
unlimited voice and data with tethering for US$50 per month, I'll wait.

I think the iPhone still has the edge but only by less than a hair. If  
I were betting, I'd bet on Android. I've not heard anyone say that  
they actually like the closed trunk of the iPhone and app store.
