If you compare premium non-Apple brands, they compare favoribly to Apple.

Since I'm not aware of a single Android phone that sells for more after two years than the full price two years prior, I'm not sure how any can compare "favorably" (limited run developer models excluded).

Pretty sure absolutely no phone sells for more than the full initial price, iPhone included. Remember, the price you see in ads are carrier subsidized, an actual new iPhone is approximately $650 without a contract.

On that note, I just bought an AT&T iPhone 4 for $250 a month ago. Not bad of a deal for 18 months later.

Per notes elsewhere in this thread, I sold each (original, 3g, 3gs, 4) on eBay for more than full price, after the next model was out. I did unlock them before sale.
