WP more stable?

In general is WP more stable then say Android 2.2/3.2. My phone Samsung Capativate and Asus transformer both seem very buggy at times. Maybe I got magic finger and break stuff?

Example netflix is horribly slow at times on my phone. Switch to tablet and one in four times I need to restart the app if it times out when paused. After I unlocked screen and hit resume it just sits there...

When it works it is smooth on my tablet but choppy at times on phone. Both are on same WiFi.

Google voice, very unstable on phone. Don't use it enough on tablet to say one way or the other. I would just not use Google Voice but then I would need to cough up another $20 to ATT for unlimited texting again. Plus I love being able to switch to PC, Tablet etc to text my friends.

Look for an article ZDNet about WP stability. Rated much higher than android.

He once made a blackberry pie out Mangos. Chickens say "tastes like Mango" when they bite into apples, out of respect. He conquered an entire army of androids with a single Mango. He's the most interesting cell phone user alive. "I dont always use smartphones, but when I do, I use WP. Stay Metro my friends."

I find my WP7 to be way more reliable than the android I was using before. It's very consistent in operation.

Its more stable than my Captivate. Equal to my iPhone 4. I'd like to get a newer Android device to how it compares.

My Quantum is more stable than my Bold 9650 was.
