Wife had an Iphone 3GS and I have a new Ipod Touch and new Ipad (for dev reasons).

I'm honestly not impressed with IOS 5 at all.

I am borrowing a Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket from a friend and put ICS Android 4.0.3 on it and am pretty impressed.

So much so that we ordered an HTC One X for my wife yesterday. I'll be getting the Samsung Galaxy S3 when it comes out for myself as well.

Even the Iphone 4S looks pretty dated compared to the newer android devices...

One gripe I had was that push email was slow with the built in android mail client. After playing around with it for a bit, I just replaced the mail app with K9 Mail and now push is even faster than my old Blackberry Torch.

Pretty impressed... also the new Snapdragon S4, Tegra 3 and upcoming quad core Samsung chips just leave the Iphone 4S behind... but get used to a big phone, the androids are much bigger than an Iphone but lighter and slimmer... the huge HD 4.x' screens take up some space though.
