When the iPhone first came out, it was groundbreaking and nothing could compare for a few years. That was then. Now all smart phones are pretty much the same.
Really? Cheapest? I was going to switch to the iPhone because I could get on my parents family plan (and essentially not have to pay for phone service) but even with 3 other lines it was still considerably more expensive than my t-mobile plan with an android phone, not including the cost of the phone itself.

The phone itself is expensive enough and you really only have one choice, but the service plan was unbelievable and didn't offer unlimited at the time (not sure if it does now).

I would say that until the cost of service goes down and they're able to provide the number of options android does, they'll never "destroy" android.
