I agree with most of this article, however this line is a bit questionable to me:

> Every time my girlfriend pulls out her Android phone, I ask her about apps I love for the iPhone and she has none of them.

I'd like to know what apps on iPhone do not already have ports or at least a worthy analog on Android (really, tell me so I can start coding a clone). At least in the phone space (maybe not tablet), Android seems every bit as crowded as iPhone.

I think the list of apps on iPhone only is actually pretty extensive. A lot of the apps will show up much later, or will eventually end up with an analogous app but not necessarily the original.

Some examples: -MindBody Yoga. A directory app for yoga classes -Angry Birds. Took 6 months or longer to end up on Android -Qrank. I don't think they have an Android app -Pictureka. At least when I was playing it, they didn't have a version on Android. -AirBnB. I think they only have an iPhone app etc... I can go on for a while... :)
