I didn't mention it in the article, but I did Android programming before I did iOS. I was doing Android programming before the iPhone SDK came out in 2008. When the iOS SDK came out, I moved to the platform that had real users and phones. Android didn't have actual phones until late 2008.

I don't remember much of my feelings of the platforms from those early days because I was in a frenzied coding mode trying to release the first few apps in the App Store. But I do remember being frustrated by the lack of something like a GridView in iOS.
