New Phone

So I am really wanting a new phone (I do love my technology).  I have been waiting for a Windows mobile 7 phone, but am getting a lot of feedback on trying a Droid.  What do you think?  I haven't been a huge Google fan up to this point, but someone (OK it was Steve) told me it would be good to try other technologies rather than just Microsoft (OK I do have my Apple IPad also).  That is a really good thought.  Thanks for the input Steve - now I have more thinking to do...
