Not sure where you meet these people, I don't know any iPhone haters, just AT&T haters.
Steve Ballmer laughed at the iphone before it came out, you'd think after about say...3 weeks on the market he was crapping his pants and diverting half of MS to coming up with a better WM handset...apparently not so. Android has only been out a little over a year and they are pretty strong, the widespread update to 2.0 and more handsets coming won't hurt anything either. After using both phones, I've seen only a slight advantage of the iPhone overall, but solid points on both sides to get either one. RIM has been doing this years, they are (for the most part) dependable and until recently the easiest best way to sync email which was it's most touted feature. As recent as 3.0 release iPhone didn't have full exchange support and those users with the BB need that kind of integration. There is also the fact that there are diehards who refuse to give up a hardware keyboard, some minds won't be changed on that front.
