From the point of view of a run-of-the-mill user, I have absolutely no idea if the iPhone has more functionality or a better applications ecosystem. All I know is that the thing is beautiful and it is a joy to use. I have all the apps I could ask for, and it doesn’t cost me that much more than using a phone that would torture me every time I fired it up.
My daughter has a Microsoft Mobile phone, and it almost causes me physical pain when I have to use the damn thing.
One may be “better” than the other, but I will stick with the one that gives me joy instead of pain.
You said — One may be “better” than the other, but I will stick with the one that gives me joy instead of pain.

That’s where Apple understands the consumer better than most any other company around...
