Here are the first 740 answers to the Bowl vs. Colander Melt-off.

If they are both in a cardbord box, ice will last longer in the colander. In a room with lots of air circulation it will last longer in the bowl....
+ heat transfer from bowl contact...
+ heat transfer from water (large capacit, small difference)
1) The small ice bits will fall out and float down the sink
2) The lack of cold water surronding the melting ice means that the ice is surronded by California air (which I presume is warmer than our currnet Minnesota air)
3)The shear weight of the pilled ice will force the lower, weaker cubes to break apart and fall through the holes (see #1). 
actual bowl on the left.
Air
Air is a poor conductor of heat, so the colander should keep its ice longer. Even though the bowl will keep cold water close to the ice, the water is still above freezing and will act as a conductor transmitting heat from the bowl to the ice.
are the bowls made of the same material?

Bowl - No holes
bowl - the airholes in the colander will increase the "convection" and warm air movement, and cause the colander's ice to melt faster.
Bowl - warmer water will insulate the ice and make that melt.

But what about the insulating properties of the bowls themselves? They look to be both of different thicknesses and shapes which would affect how the ice is exposed to it's warmer surroundings!

Holy shnikies!
I believe that the colander will make the ice last longer
I dont know!
I eat children.
I guess is that the water keep the ice in the bowl from melting at fast at the ice in the collonder. 
I have no idea.
I predict "THE BOWL". The colander holes will allow airflow there by making the ice melt faster.
I predict the colander will make the ice last the longest. 
I saw Rob the other day digging food out of the dumpster behind KFC.
I think it depends on how well the air circulates in the room you are in. 
I think that the bowl will take the longset to melt.
I think the bowel will keep the ice cold, until it gets to the colonder.
I think the bowl will help protect the ice from melting the longest rather than the colander. I figure the melted ice will insulate the ice in the bowl better than the air surrounding the ice in the colander. That's just my $0.02, though.
I think the bowl with the water in it will keep the ice from melting because if there's no water surrounding the ice, there's more surface area for the ice to be evaporated from... :(
I think the ice with the water will melt faster becuase the melted ice water will slowly heat up and water is a better conductor (right phrase!?!?!) than air.
Ice in the bowl will last longer.
If the water is stirred it will help the melting; otherwise it will keep the ice cold.
I'LL GUESS YOU!
I'm sayin the bowl, the water will help melt the ice better than just air alone...
It is all thermal dynamics these days don't ya know. Of course the one with the water will last longer.
it won't matter
keep from melting
Keep ice cold. So very cold.

The bowl that allows drainage.
The bowl that doesn't allow the water to drain will protect the ice from melting the longest.
The bowl that holds the water.
The bowl that isn't a colander, of course.
The bowl that keeps the water.
The bowl that retains the water will allow the ice to remain longer because the temperature differential between the ice and the cold water is less than the temperature differential between the ice and the air (which is the case with the collander).
The bowl that retains the water will protect the ice from melting longer.
The bowl that retains the water will protect the ice longest. And it will be so, because I decree it.
the bowl that will keep the ice in contact w/ the water will keep the ice longer.
The bowl that will not allow the water to drain.
the bowl w/o holes
The bowl will keep cold longest, colander will keep cold shortest
The bowl will keep the ice from melting longest, not the colander.
the bowl will keep the ice frozen longer
The bowl will keep the ice the longest because of the increased thermal mass of the ice+water mixture and the decreased surface area of the ice-air boundary.
The bowl will last longer. The water is a better insulator than the air.
the bowl will last the longest
The bowl will melt more quickly, as the thawed ice (i.e. water) will continue to thaw the remaining ice.
The Bowl will melt more slowly, not because of the water but because heat escapes through those tiny holes!
The bowl will work better.
The bowl with the collander because the cold air is allowed to circulate. 
the bowl with the water
The bowl with the water kept in it will melt the fatest as the water warms up and melts it.. perhaps.
The bowl with water will last the longest
the bowl without drainage will keep the ice from melting longer
the bowl without holes
The bowl without the hole will melt slower

The bowl, although asking the question "which bowl" when referring to a bowl and a colander is inherently flawed.

the colander Ice will melt first because the holes provide more air circulation
the colander one, as long as it is not in a hot enviornment
The colander should allow the greatest surface area for air to reach the ice and therefore should allow the ice to melt faster. The bowl, once filled with water would have less surface area to absorb heat.
the colander should drain more quickly
The colander will prolong the melting the longest because of the high conductivity of the water.
The colander will protect the ice from melting longer, although it is at a disadvantage as the bowl insulates the ice on all sides but the top.
the colander will pwn the bowl.
The Colander!
The colander.
The colander.
The colander.
The colander. As the ice must be below 0 degrees (C), in the bowl, the average tepertaure will rise steadily, whereas in the colander, as the average temperature of the contents must always be below freezing, assuming there is not much air movement, the average temperature areound the ice will be lower, so it will melt more slowly, also there will be less surface area for the heat to be absorbed through as the ice depleats. The water in the bowl may help to insulate it as it is a poor conductor of heat, and convection cannot take heat energy downwards, however over a long period the colander will win.
The colander: because air, having fewer particles per cubic volume, has less kinetic energy than water.

The ice in the bowl that holds the water will last the longest.
The Ice in the bowl will melt faster!!
The ice in the colander will melt first, because the holes will allow for more surface area of ice to be exposed to the air and melt/evaporate.
The ice that is in the colander will melt faster because more air is reaching the ice.

The one on the right, which allows the water to drain away. I suspect that if you were to have ice melting with water contained, ice melting with water drained, and ice melting with a current of water, the ice with the current would melt the fastest, then the draining ice, then the ice and still water.
the one retaining water
The one that allows the water to drain away will melt faster.
The one that allows water to stay in contact will melt slowest because the water will act as a short of insulator, slowing heat transfer much more than air, which is the only thing insulation the other.
The one that contains the water will stay colder longer and thus the ice will melt more slowly.
The one that does not allow draining

The water will help the ice melt. 
The water will help the ice melt... it seems like the ice will try to equalize the temperature of the water, thus causing it to melt faster... the colander should keep it from melting longer
The water will make it melt faster!
The water will protect the ice from melting by minimizing the surface area of the ice exposed to the (warm) air. 
The water will remain at 32 F until all the ice is melted. Therefore, the ice in the bowl will stay colder longer.

Water conducts the heat away from the ice faster than air does, so the bowl will melt faster!

water helps keep the ice cold
Water is a better conductor of heat than air, so my guess is that ice in bowl will melt faster than ice in colander.
water is a better conductor than air, so the colander will last longer because it won't have warmer water shoving heat up the ice's butt
Water will help it melt.
