I use a Nexus One as my daily phone since it came out in January, and it's hard to say whether Android software/hardware experience will ever catch up to Apple's standard.

The touchscreen on the iPhone is state of the art, with my N1, I need to touch something once or twice, which never happens with iPhone.

Same for keyboard on the iPhone, it's light years better than any of the dozens implementations for Android. I don't care for predictive text so much as just a great spell checker.

Also compare the Facebook app on both phones. Android's is not there yet.

I have, yes. I still prefer the iPhone keyboard.
