Android, iPhone User Stereotypes Revealed

[Dave]

how does one even attempt to compare demographics between one high market phone and literally hundreds of others that are marketed to all levels? The slightest attempt to apply scientific controls might be nice

Kelly Ford is the name of a smokeshow i went to high school with, wonder if its the same one?

Same with me except it's an iPhone. And a company paid iPad. And a company paid Xoom. I don't know where the fuck I fit in.

Just curious, why both an iPad and a Xoom?

Apple users also seem more inclined to open their wallets just because Steve Jobs said so, whereas Android users are a lot more picky about where their money goes.

Spoken like a true Android fanboy.

I'm an iPhone user. It happens to be the only Apple product I own. I'm also a computer engineer. So how's that for "into nuts and bolts of making things work" for you?

Anything more is retarded cheerleading so people can feel good about the dumb shit they buy.

Corey has it right.

I requested them for testing our software that I work with, even though they are only used for that purpose 5% of the time. They sit unused most of the week.

It's high time for another toy, but I'm not sure what to ask for.
