Yes great that there is good competition. Buyers should benefit from better prices and features.

Obviously the big advantage with Android is the greater choice of size, features and price points.

Anyway, with the use of our mobile phones we can always add applications in our phones. In connection with this, I read from an article that while applications such as Angry Birds continue being the most popular applications on smartphones, more practical applications are slowly but surely coming available. A brand new application called Winter Survival Kit aims to obtain the kind of survival info that can help save drivers' lives. Source of article: Survival apps filling an emergency niche.
