Android for about 12 years now. Started with an iphone 3g, but just after the iphone 4 came out apple rolled out a mandatory ios update that made the 3gs run unbelievably slowly (I'm talking several minute's delay for almost any action). Thousands of people complained on apple forums, asking for a patch, or simply being able to roll back to the previous ios version. Apple's response was basically "Instead of us fixing the problem we caused, why don't you reward us by buying the iphone 4 (while still paying off your 3g under contract)?" Once the contract expired on that 3g about 6 months later I got my first android phone and haven't gone back.
