Re: About to Jump from iOS but I have a few questions re: OS upda
The HP Touchpad is glitchy because it isn't supposed to be running Android in the first place. It's an OS that has been ported to a WebOS device. So don't worry too much about that as it isn't a fair indicator of Android glitchy-ness.
On the contrary, Forbes found that apps crash less often on Android than they do on iOS these days, so if you've been happy with iOS then you should be happy with Android in this regard:
Do iOS Apps Crash More Than Android Apps? A Data Dive - Forbes
And to expand on what some others have been saying, the S3 will have a fantastic dev community thanks to its market penetration and so you can just unlock the bootloader and flash a custom ROM as custom ROMs will always make sure you are running the latest version of Android as quickly as possible. I've got a spare HTC Incredible laying around that was flashed to ICS 4 months ago
