I don't have an Android phone yet, but planning on getting one to replace my regular clamshell phone (maybe with a Sciphone N12, no contract & inexpensive, using wi-fi only for data). The biggest roadblock are expensive 3G data plans that are required to get an Android phone right now. I see the Android a potential replacement for PCs on the go for most people. It's what Microsoft did for the PC in the 80/90s. allowing different hardware manufacturers to run the same standardized OS. Apple will be slowly squeezed out again even though their product may be easier to use, but the closed system and higher price limits its appeal.
