I've never understood the Android market objections... The fact that it's more open is, for me, by far the biggest positive. I hated being stuck with only those things Apple wanted me to use (and having apps that worked fine, and were clearly not malware, being pulled seemingly at random), and having zero other options, outside of a root. It's been fantastic not even needing to use the standard market (or the amazon one) and still being able to find 3rd party apps that function just fine. It does, generally, take an extra 15 seconds to read through the permissions the app wants and a few reviews to make sure it sounds legit, but it's hardly an imposition, given that I'm generally spending a few extra seconds reading the description in the first place. I'd add that, in general, I've experienced far less frustration using the Apple store than the standard Android market, but the 3rd party options generally more than make up for that.
