Really... boasting about file syncing... 
Check Dropbox... Anyone can have it and also customize what is sync on what device + share specific folders with other dropbox users

Yet another survey devalued by a bunch of retarded optional text answers
...guess you cant expect everyone to be able to read AND write
My opinions are right, and yours are wrong! (or at least that is my opinion)

If it doesn't glitter and taste like BACON then it don't count. I use and dev [a bit] on Android and feel that because it is open [for a given value of open] it is allowed to be the most innovative. But it still doesn't include free BACON samiches

By closing everything off Apple are stifling innovation, regardless of what they can or will do themselves.
True innovation comes from giving as many as possible the possibility to do anything.
Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

Although I vote for Apple... I would say new Windows mobile 8 with its metro applications looks quite cool... its just I haven't had a chance to evaluate it so going by what I have seen... Apple it is!

Is innovation (as a concept) the being cool?
A cool product is not "innovation": is much more a matter of fashion and design.
Innovation is "changing the way things can be done".
From an i-phone and a W8-mobile I don't see a "boost on innovation": just a market share between two different ways to do very similar things.
The real step to innovation was the introduction of multi-touch screens, wide enough to let "browsing" sustainable. Apple was the first who introduced them, in fact, changing the concept of "phone" and "palm" merging them to a same appliance, thus allowing the deployment of application bridging the two worlds.
Now, until a new user interface paradigm will not be introduced, it no more innovation, but just a matter of design, fashion.

When I vote for Apple it precisely is for launching iPhone (and not its successors). iPhone with its multi-touch and many other features was an innovation... now a days it is more about copying and some fancy here and there...
But with Win8... there is another new dimension coming in... possibility to use the same gadget as a phone/tablet as well as a regular pc. This is with reference to an idea I read in some article during win8 launch which suggested the requirement of some docking options and more processing power built into the phones (we have already reached dual core now) so that they can be docked and connected to other peripherals and used as a regular pc.
btw... your signature is cool... quite familiar situation

... nice expensive toys. Let them duke it out which one of them will eventually take the throne and which ones must go the way of the dinosaurs. Until then I lean back, watch the show, shake my head over all the hysteria and by the way save lots of money.

Then you have what I don't have: A good reason to have one of those things. And up to now not even the best salesmen could give me an answer up to now.

I'm curious to know: what does a mobile app gives you that a desktop app or website doesn't? Seriously, that's not a rhetorical question.
Do you gain a huge advantage by having notifications always on for example?
