That I think is the upside of Android. Once you root the device and unlock the bootloader you can load custom roms and basically make your phone the way you want it. A popular rom that was used when I was an avid Android user was MIUI. Looked and ran like the iphone but was still at its core Android.
It wont happen but it would be nice if Apple just opened up a little and followed Google when it comes to customisation. Sure jailbreaking wont go away and allows user some customisability but its not endorsed the same way as it is with Android phones/tablets.

For me, the screen quality and camera are infinitely better than the iPhone, the choice of Apps is good, the fact you can have almost any browser you want installed and the sound quality of calls is excellent.
If I could, I'd have the functionality of the Note, with the smooth, slick interface of the iPhone. I'd have the screen size of the Note, but the build quality of the iPhone.
Will the iPhone 5 make me wet? Possibly, but for what I want, right here, right now, the Note is simply epic!

Didn't one prototype go missing, I think I now know who's got it
