I have an iPhone and I jailbroke it to make it open source. Meaning I don't only have to install apps from the AppStore. This allows me to install apps that apple dorks make but don't have the money to get put in the AppStore. Hotspot, call blocking, app management etc. but that's not for the non tech savvy person to do. Personally I love the functionality of the iPhone and ease of use. There were just a couple features it didn't have that I needed to jailbreak for.

Wife and kids have iphone's and I have the droid x2 through verizon. I always thought of the i phone as being more of a ladies or kids phone because it is smaller and seemingly more delicate. Droid x2 fits better in my hands as I have big hands if you know what I mean. lol
I went from a Droid2 to an Iphone4s when my contract was up last. I will probably go back to the Android platform when my contract is up again. I have no real serious bitches about my 4s, just a personal preference towards the Android mostly. Battery life isn't too bad at all on the Iphone.
As far as viruses go, basically you are safer on an Iphone (except for Joe's case where he doesn't have to go through the app store), because they do not allow third-party apps in their store. They have to be apple approved. For Android, when you are downloading apps, just be sure you read the reviews on the app. Most of the time if anyone has trouble with them or they are infected, it will say so in the reviews.

I went to the HTC with Android because this phone has a bigger screen & since I have android tablets, what apps you have on one, you can have on another with no extra charge. Perhaps that's the same for Apple, I dunno. I really liked my Iphone, but my eyes like the HTC better.
