I've been talking with a few folks who've been comparing webOS to
Android and here are some (although this is by no means an exhaustive
list):

a. Synergy does its job of combining social PIM far better than Android does.

b. De-combining munged contacts on Android is much more painful than
webOS' elegant approach

c. Managing open/running apps is far easier on webOS

d. Palm's phones are smaller (in case that matters)

e. You're supporting the underdog, the fighting everyman, of the phone industry

f. webOS integrates with more social networks than Android currently
does (LinkedIn, Yahoo!, etc.)

Others?
