Trying to decide between the HTC ERIS or LG Ally. Anyone have either of these? Which one is better? I thought HTC were better but looks like the LG has way better battery life?

i have an LG Vu - the interface is ill-thought out and very rudimentary. An android phone will be much more full-featured and will definitely have a more powerful interface.
- well fuck me.. the lg ally is droid too! nevermind!bigtrickagain

The Ally has more battery life because it has a larger battery (1500mAh vs 1300mAh). The Ally has the 1GHz processor vs. the 528MHz processor of the Eris. The Ally is about .1 in thicker than the Eris, has a slide out keyboard (no slide on the Eris) and has a larger screen. The Eris comes standard (from Verizon) with a 8GB SD card, the Ally only comes with a 4GB. The Eris has a 5M pixel camera, the Ally only 3.2 (though the Ally has LED flash, the Eris no flash). Both are now running Android 2.1, though some folks getting the Eris have to update from v. 1.5. The Eris is basically the HTC Hero with a new skin on, the electronics are almost the same (read dated). I have also been trying to choose and I am leaning towards the Ally.

"Having been snubbed, Eris creates a golden apple with the word kallisti (Ancient Greek: καλλίστῃ, to the prettiest one) inscribed in it.[15] This, the Apple of Discord, is a notable symbol in Discordianism for its inclusion in the Holy Chao. The apple is traditionally described as being made of gold,[16] but the Principia Discordia notes a debate over whether the “gold” described was “metallic gold or Acapulco.”[15] The story also relates that the first thing Eris did after throwing the Apple of Discord into the wedding was to joyously partake of a hot dog[15] which is meant to explain the Discordian prohibition against consuming hot dog buns."

I might try to hold out for the new iphone. I have the older Edge and want to upgrade but don't know if I want to step away from iphone yet. A friend just got a Droid Eris and it's pretty sweet.
