It can make us laugh and cry (instant messaging), Guide us to our path (GPS navigation services), fulfill our business needs (email configuration), do social networking (Facebook, Twitter etc), share stuff (File sharing using Bluetooth), listen and even make music and videos (media applications), play and develop incredible games (mobile games development) and a lot more.

As far as the cost factor is concerned, most of the mobile applications are available in the market starting from as low as free to $.99 to $6, along with trial versions of these apps for free. But it does not mean that we have to pay to get any application to work in our phone. There is a bunch of very useful apps which are available free in the market, For example Skype, Google voice, Word press, AppMiner, I-Books, Facebook, Pandora-radio, Find my phone etc can be downloaded free of cost. The utility of these applications does speak for their value-for-money aspect, which is making us buy them, to help us live a better life.Though, taking every aspect into account, including the brand popularity, consumer demand, ease of development, future technology, competition, flexibility, increasing number of users etc. Apple's I-OS and Android are on the top.
Android's best feature is that it uses the open source java as it's development medium, which is attracting developers with any development background to go for it. As, it reduces any kind of dependency to develop its applications where as i-OS development is done in MAC environment only.
