Which should I get, an HTC or Android?

I currently have an iPhone 3G. Have had it for almost 2 years now and honestly I’m pretty sick of it. I have a friend that works at AT&T who gets to take home and play/learn all the new phones. When they came out with the HTC Inspire he got one to use and I got to play with it one night and loved it! Since then I have wanted one. He actually told me of a few other phones that he thought were better but I still wanted the Inspire. Now everyone I know are getting Androids and bragging about how great they are. So I guess what I’m really asking is if you have one of these brands (HTC or Android) which one do you have, why that one and what all can you do on it ( I.E cool apps, music apps like iPods if any like that, styles of texting, cool settings, what kind of Internet and what you can do on it, ex..)?

And of course any down falls these phones/brands you own may have.
