iPhone 4S vs. Best of the Rest

How the iPhone 4S Stacks Up With the Best of the Rest | Gadget Lab | Wired.com

It appears that only iPhone 4S has support for multiple networks...
And "Siri"

Siri on iPhone 4S lets you use your voice to send messages, schedule meetings, place phone calls, and more. Ask Siri to do things just by talking the way you talk. Siri understands what you say, knows what you mean, and even talks back. Siri is so easy to use and does so much, you’ll keep finding more and more ways to use it.


While Android phones are getting larger, iPhone is getting smarter.

Apple Siri: the next big revolution in how we interact with gadgets?
...Siri is plugged into Yelp and Wolfram Alpha (a search engine dedicated to finding facts instead of Web pages). If you ask Siri how much $45 is in British pounds, it can tell you the answer. Or how many cups are in a gallon (16, for the measurement challenged). But again, the best part of this is that you don’t have to tone down or over compensate for computer hearing. Siri listens like a person, and often responds that way, too.
...the entire focus of Apple over the past few years, the company wants the desktop computer to disappear and something else to take its place. Siri looks like it’s going to be a big part of that disappearing act...
