[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1533139"] With respect, this is an opinion you are trying to pass off as fact. Android hasn't changed much at all since it reinvented itself post-iPhone in my view -- the carrier or manufacturer "skins" are responsible for pretty much all the "variety" that has come since Android 2.x. By your definition, Windows Phone could also fit the charge of "uninspired" since its a slavish adaptation of Windows, which has been around for decades. The only thing original about it is the (admittedly strong effort) Metro skin. I'm probably the naive one, but I think (hope) that most people don't really make expensive buying decisions based on such vapid and superficial criteria as "this doesn't change for change's sake often enough" and instead value things like consistency, reliability and functionality -- which you can find in various quantities in all three main mobile OSes (and BlackBerry too, while we're at it).
