For me the big question in the iPhone vs Android battle is whether the big money and geek cred that Google brings to the table will be enough to overcome the combination of Apple's head start and what will probably be a rather chaotic hardware situation. (Android's strength, openness, could prove to be a big challenge when it comes to a trouble-free user experience)
