has everyone read the article on here about xda focusing they're attention to the iphone development? WOW.
http://www.xda-developers.com/feature/ios-is-superior-xda-changing-focus/
Totally not April fools
I also agree that iOS is superior because the features are so unique and it is much more customisable with a variety of devices.

so would you say that xda is going to slowly move away from android os and start strictly focusing on ios?
i have to say that the smart thing to try out for trial and error purposes is, to come out with a phone that can switch between ios and android. just like the mac can also run windows.

I really wish a port would come to fruition. However, no dev even seems remotely interested.
Also, windows phone 7 has been out for quite a while now on GSM carriers, but there has been no port to a GSM android device. I fear there might be more issues than just developer interest.

I just read that the HTC arrive doesn't even have wimax support. I'm sure it would have been alot easier if it did. I'm guessing it would be a full time job for someone to take along the port i.e getting wimax to work and etc. So right now I don't believe there's even a cdma wp7 phone with wimax yet. Bummer

Good thing is,Windows 8 will be open-source, and rumor of the mill on G4 is that the Xbox 720 will be on Windows 9 and will be 'connected' with its desktop, and phone counterparts. My speculation is that while Windows Phone may be closed source for now, that's soon going to change.

He knows its an android forum. That's why he asked us WHY DO WE PREFER ANDROID OVER WINDOWS.
If you're gonna try to make a fool of someone, cover your bases first.
On-topic, I actually prefer windows mobile to android. Windows Mobile was so customizable and had a lot of options at your fingertips. I was TORN upgrading from my bbcurve cuz I couldn't decide if I wanted the TP2 or the Hero but I settled for the hero because of the camera.
Now its no contest. Windows Phone 7 is so ****ing stupid and limited compared to windows mobile.

Sent from my hoe. Forgive the typoes; it's an Epic.
WP7 might be good for people who doesn't want to deal with troubleshooting their phone, i.e. non-tech savvy people. It actually has nice UI and I heard it gives refreshing experience to people who are exhausted with iOS and/or android. I like its zune style music app. I am actually frustrate with Android music player. Default one looks soooo outdated. I want something real nice like iOS's coverflow or WP7's zune for android out of the box. Don't want to pay extra money buying music apps. Also there are no good music apps that work flawlessly with the lock screen.
Again, WP7 has less apps and porting is slower. I think it doesn't have Skype yet but will have Tango soon. Also it doesn't have free tethering. All the good things about android such as rooting, installing unique apps like call recorder, roam control, PRL flashing, free GPS navigation, decluttering unnecessary carrier apps, etc. are not possible.
Personally, I would like to try Lumia 800 if I wasn't in contract with Sprint.
I went with Android mainly because it is not Windows, and I hate Windows.
I've been working with Windows for almost 20 years(wow, feeling old) and its just one thing after another when it comes to bugs.
I would have went with an IPhone if it had a slide-out keyboard. Android was the only alternative in my books, since Palm blew chunks with the Pre. I had a 755P Palm OS phone forever, before trying the Pre and then going to the Moment.
So I got a Epic Touch for a reasonable price that should be arriving tomorrow. Not getting rid of my Epic, but it won't be on a line. I'll be happy to test anything for people. Please feel free to contact me. I'll be lurking and helping here still. Not to fear.
Let us know how it is going from epic's QWERTY to no-keyboard.
The keyboard options for new phones are sparse and not terribly viable (droid 4's display, bootloader, etc).
It will soon be time for all of us to move on, and life in the non-qwerty world seems daunting!

No. iOS and Android operate in a whole different way. iOS is also restricted for the hardware it's made for. iOS is also crap.
The closest to iOS you can come on android, however, would be MIUI.
Why the hell would anyone want that archaic POS on our awesome phone? Even if it was possible why would anyone want to????
if you want iOS then do what anyone else would do and buy an iPhone and become one of the many iSheep of the world (isn't it time they were culled anyway?)
Why would you want to do that? not 1 aspect of iOS is open source.
