[TriLUG] Android Phone vs iPhone vs other smartphones

[Thomas Ingram]

I have the HTC Dream. I use Google Apps for email, and the two-way
sync works great. The only issue I have is occasionally if I read an
email before I get the new mail notification, then the phone shows I
have an unread message, yet all messages are read. It doesn't happen
very often though. Otherwise everything just works.
