Local information......
Now that Verizon has the iPhone, the people I talk to locally (quite a lot actually) are only getting Android (which going with Verizon's ads they only know as Droid) if they cannot afford the iPhone, are not a Blackberry user, or don't want the free LG / Samsung feature phones. I suspect the last category would disappear if Verizon had the $49 iPhone 3GS.
The Blackberry people (sure are a lot here) seem to be going iPhone if work isn't buying at about 50% rate.
