F'em, I'm ready to dump google and move to the dreded Apple World!

I think the name change is pretty awful myself...but a "name" isn't enough to make me switch services.

I also feel that it just sounds childish, and I really wonder how they came to think it was really an improvement. Hopefully the "play" brand goes the way of New Coke and just disappears pretty soon.

:D Sometimes we are reminded that the multitude of Google Software Engineers are still under 30 and wear cut-offs, flip-flops and earings to work. Because it's easier to play smurf ball in the office that way. :) Smart dudes, though.

Oh, and yes, I'm envious.

Watson, you must be joking!

No one would give up Android to suffer using a dumbdowned Apple device!

The Device may be dumber, and for dumber users, but I'm sick and tired of Big Brother Google and their crap. Actually I'd like to have just a great high wattage phone and a separate tablet with data.

Apple device users are not dumber; most are just not interested in learning to customize.

I don't appreciate some of Google's changes, but Apple is more overbearing Google.

Good luck if you decide on iPhone, but I suspect that you'll regret it.
