Ok, I believe iPhone are about twice the price of Android, but have a reputation for accessibility second to none! I have one, I had it on the strength of all the other vI's on list doing almost everything with them like a second pocket pc; except it remains a Mac. I've no idea what is on android by default, if anything; thus raising the issue of how they get to be accessible at all; but guess they are, but very likely by third party efforts; which is back to where we normally start. YOu can pick up a second hand iPhone off eBay just like anyone else, and you can get it to do the thing and for once have competed equally in the open market. This is what I did, got it off eBay and it does the biz! There are other users much more enthusiastic even than me; so that's the playing field so far. i'll be interested to see what and how much support arises for the 'Droid.

I am looking at the possibility of getting a smart phone. I am considering either an Iphone or one of the Android ones. The question is which has the better accessibility? Leaving out the fact that Android is more open than Apple. I am tired of paying for phones that I can only use a small set of the available features on because most are inaccessible.
