I currently have the Nokia Twist from Verizon, but I definatly want to upgrade it here soon. I'm looking at either the iPhone or Droid.. Is one better than the other?


Answer
get a droid phone, and with a app called "double twist" you can sync all your itunes music to your android

I prefer android over apple for the reason that its open-source, that means that the majority of the apps are free, and you get more revolutionary and cutting edge apps, and do things are even only barely available on a jail broken iphone
The android market already has 250000 apps- closing in on apple 500000; some say it will surpass it before the year is over. Also any popular iphone game or game adaptation can be found in the android market for free.
Another great thing about android as that if you dont like something (keyboard, homescreen, etc.) it can easily be swapped without jail-breaking, unlike the iphones one-size-fits-all approach.

Despite the false rumors, The iphone is also just as, if not more vulnerable to viruses as android

Apple lovers that say that the iphone is made of better quality material? They donât realize that Samsung, an android phone maker, supplyâs the screen, processor and memory for apple devices, so android has the advantage here.
The iphone is pretty, but not durable, drop it once- it breaks, all that glass around it? That was honestly a mistake. Android manufactures clearly saw that, and decided to do with something a little more durable.

And the iphones âretina displayâ is a huge scam. By definition a âretina displayâ is one where the human eye cannot distinguish individual pixels. But this is determined by several factors; most important being the distance between the screen and your eyes. The iphones retina distance is 12in, move any closer than that- say 7in and itâs no longer a âretina screenâ because your eyes can now see the pixels, by that same token, if I move my android phone back, to say 16-17in, amazingly, it becomes a retina screen as well! (feel free to google this)

Also apple never invents anything, there never âthe firstâ. All they do is steal old technology, give it a fresh coat of paint and mass advertise it as âmagicalâ and âinnovatingâ, thus fooling the mass of the population into believing that apple offers cutting edge technology, that in fact has been around for quite a few years.
So instead of innovating, apple actually hinders technology- after 4 years they still have low-power single core phones, while android, an example of technology in overdrive, has rumored that, after their second year, the release of quad core phones that will surpass even some desktop computers in shear processing power. (now any 2011 android is smoother and faster than the iphone)

Apple should now feel pretty worried; android has passed it in market share
http://www.businessinsider.com/android-iphone-market-share-2011-4

Then apple panics and sues
http://www.dailytech.com/Google+ExCEO+Apple+Doesnt+Innovate+They+Sue/article22190.htm
The funny thing is that apple canât sue for being the first touchscreen or tablet, because they werenât,(Nokia fist touch screen, âarchosâ first tablet) so instead they sue for much more relevant things like, âthe rounded icon cornersâ and âhaving a flat screenâ or âthe square shape of the phoneââ¦â¦..

To top it all, if youâve seen apples 2011 presentation, they blatantly copied over five "new" features that were previously on android.

http://www.droid-life.com/2011/06/06/apple-introduces-ios5-with-notifications-ota-updates-and-tabbed-browsing-android-users-giggle-at-their-late-arrival/
1. Notification bar
2. Twitter integration
3. No need to connect to PC to sync
4. Launch apps from lock screen
5. Tabbed browsing

And not only are they copies, but apple didnât even bother to improve, or change some of them in any way- some even have LESS features than their android counter parts, itâs basically a cheap imitation with the ever-popular iphone skin.
According to Steve jobs, these "revolutionary" new technologies that android users had since 2007 will be available on IOS5, and it would not surprise me to see some more android features from 2008 on IOS6.But the truly sad part is that due to apples marketing, in a few months, apple lovers will really think that apple invented those features and call android the copycatsâ¦yet again.

What is the best rts pc game ever that is very popular and is available right now?


Answer
It depends on the definition of 'best ever', so let not go that way.
Anyway, some good (and popular RTS) games are:

- Age of Empires III: (2005) Set in the pre modern era, and with some very good improvements over its predecessors. You're computer will probably be able to run this. (NOTE: You may want to tweak the options, to enable stances etc. if you do get this game)

Consider Asian Dynasties (October 2007) or WarChief (2006) expansion packs, they're excellent, and add a lot to the original, completely revolutionizing AOE.

-Company of Heroes (January 2007): World War II based RTS game. Its got everything needed by an excellent RTS game.

If you do get Company of Heroes, consider Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts, a very well made expansion pack released in September 2007.

-Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars (June 2007) An awesome addition to C&C. An expansion pack is on the way.

-World in Conflict (October 2007): Set in a fictional World War III, in 1989. It has more modern weapons than the above RTS games, and amazing graphics. Its an excellent RTS game.

They have all recieved excellent reviews from video game websites and magazines, as well as players. They are extremely popular. You'll especially enjoy World in Conflict online, as players team up and take up different roles in an army (aerial, vehicle and infantry forces).

Universe at War's coming out, but I reckon its stupid and you probably won't like it.

-System Requirements:


World in Conflict: Minimum System Requirements, use this as a base for other games... Age of Empires requires less power.

(Better configuration recommended for better gameplay).
* OS: Windows XP, Vista (32-bit)
* CPU: 2.0 Ghz or faster (2.2 GHz for Vista)
* RAM: 512 MB (1 GB for Vista)
* Disc Drive: DVD
* Hard Drive: 9 GB or more free space
* Video: 128 MB video RAM, DirectX 9.0c compatible
* Sound: DirectX 9.0c compatible
* Input: Keyboard and mouse
* Internet play: Cable, DSL or better
* Note: ATI Radeon 8500, 9200 and NVIDIA GeForce 4 MX not supported.
