My main concern for both Android and iOS is how well they play in the corporate environment. I know that they both support exchange. I've always seen RIM's BES as a standard for corporate networks, and since I don't have experience with Android or iOS in a corporate environment, I'm really curious how they behave. Since your iPhone doubles as your work phone, do you have it connected to your work network? Any issues?

I really only use my phone to get work email, for business contacts to get a hold of me, to play demo music, and for keynote presentations. So far, it's worked very well. Other than that, it's not connected to any other part of my work network. I think if I used it for anything more than that, an iPad would be better suited for the task. I had my Android phone set up for my work email, and it was so tedious to use my phone because of security reasons that I removed the account. With my iPhone, the security feature is a lot less tedious.

Again, I can only share my experience with what I've owned. I realize that Verizon is awful when it comes to filling their phones with their garbage bloatware. It's too bad that they still have the best coverage in my area compared to any other company. On top of that, I really don't want to lose my unlimited data (smart move on the cell phone company's part to keep customers that hate them). At one point Verizon had decent phones and good customer service.

just checked the catalog at work again, it got updated recently. they added the Atrix 2 and the BB Torch 9850. I'm now leaning towards the Atrix 2 since it has 4G. I expect it to not have the greatest battery life, but I could always get a second battery (should be able to get work to pay for it if i really need it).

Latest and greatest Droid confusion... com.motorola.blur.home.other

It keeps popping up in my task manager saying its over the power threshold. When I kill it, it pops right back up within about a minute and then just keeps telling me its acting up. Anyone else have this problem?

FYI, for those that haven't heard yet, Verizon is offering extended batteries for any of their 4G LTE devices for 50% off.

I ordered two for my Galaxy Nexus earlier (now I'm going to have 4 batteries for this thing Shocked

).

If you have a corporate discount, you should not log in. You cannot use both discounts, and the system will pick your corporate discount over the 50% off.

I had the original I was insulted by Samsungs lack of support to be honest with you. And using Kies for updates blows. I do have the Nexus S in my collection and can't complain about the support on that Samsung model but, I think anything branded "Nexus" is contolled more by Google than the manifacture.

Yeah but I'm not leaving it on Samsung's software for long. I can't leave anything alone.

Sucks to hear about Samsung. I'm kinda glad I replaced my Galaxy S phone after it started getting "shitty" on me.

I think they focused to much attention on the new stuff, and that was the reason for the lack of support.
