To a certain extend, iPhone users do depend on the Google suite of products.  If you're a GMail user, you probably have lots of saved locations on your google maps, items on your google calendar, and contacts &#38; voicemail on google voice.  The android integrates all of these "must-have" apps very nicely on a mobile device.<p>Apple hasn't done so great with their mobile.me platform.  Had they done better, the iphone would have been a great mobile device for their mail/contacts/maps.
