" Enjoy the phone set to enter the Smartphone fray this week. But can't compete with the likes of Blackberry storm -- and Apple's latest iPhone of course. -- right here we've got all three forget the video we got right here to head to head match up along with our tech expert."

" point to guide us through the drawing commercial I gotta say John is one of the best commercials -- real t.'s commercial really -- for -- so is Detroit that's the drug what does -- have that none of the others well one of the things it hasn't on the others do -- is a full keyboard getting close up America and so it's slick it's a lot slicker than the previous version it also has a fighting -- target. Show you right here but it also has. Voice surge so I've tried a lot of actually works pretty well and it has navigation. That's free so it has turn by turn directions just like a portable navigation -- like GPS right so it eliminates all the extra charges -- people -- hurting for navigation of phone. Plus it has all these applications. He dried android software is of course Google's software to open source software there's about 10000 applications. Now people say will -- iPhone has 90000 or 60000 or whoever but can you find anything and mostly applications. A heart attack repeat how much per month that this two year contract right well that depends on data plan and how many minutes and it usually about seventy dollars a month for most these phones. All three phones are around 200 dollars that the -- when it comes out on Friday. Will be 1992 year contract and I hear the screen is much sharply as much I found much sharper than the iPhone I'm I like hit a lot the keyboard it has removable battery it has a flash for the five megapixel camera flash and has -- five pedal my got a flat. And so you get a much better or just Virginia let's move on a black -- I lost my -- week I'm probably not going to be entitled to this fancy dancing model there was this is what is that norm to the first what came it's got this I don't see the roller ball it's no rule abolished just touching it's got this weird kind of clicking. Yet you touch it but it clicks to bring out that's cool so what's that tactile idiot it is but you know what I can't really get used to it as she -- whole. I'd try different things. And you know whatever way I try to do things on it. It just still feels weird now they've changed the mechanics and it's not the same as the last 180 dollars with the rebate. It is a much faster quicker than brown is a little bit better but the browns are still behind the other ones. And of course it's the email monster if your business user. Blackberry what they're really trying to do is give you -- touch screen sexy option you just don't want us to put Blackberry. No pretty keyboard what what they're trying to do is to break into the the the Apple market make it more than -- office utensils that they want to I mean obviously Apple is the one that everybody's getting four but it's still not number one in the market you've got Nokia there and rim had a bit. Motorola is the one that's got so much to win or lose here because they used to have these huge hits the start tactic. The all these other phones that we remember they haven't had hit like after a long time but I think. This is a hit show according -- one -- we do that yeah Palm Pre has a QWERTY keyboard as well as a touch screen what is going on with the palm -- the -- trouble it's it's on the sprint network. It's hard to develop for. You're going to see a lot of applications for this phone and for other android phones -- going to be a slew of android phones coming out Sony's -- and really sharp X ten. Coming up early next year it's an android phone. The developers get more money from making out for android phones Anderson -- is just expanding and expanding very rapidly. So this be an iPhone killer just throwing it could and I think the development platform is part of the software that goes into his large part of it Google supporting it doing things like. He of the free navigation turn -- turn Verizon on the storm to charges ten dollars a month for that application. But we don't know that Apple's not sitting on its heels just waiting to be overtaken they are coming up with another model of the sample as we -- absolutely -- they'll add more memory don't add more applications every time around but. They don't they don't want to open up their platform and that's something that the android phones have going for them an open platform anybody can develop for easily John springs John thank you very much."
