Who said you have to be obliged to ota updates? If you want simplicity and ease of use, and errr, just to show-off, iphone is a great way to go.
Also, there are variety of android handsets that are way better than the evo 4g, you just haven't tried any yet. Besides to say that android sucks base on your experience with one phone is trolling. I could say that iphone/iOS sucks because everyone iphone look the same and boring as he'll.
