Google had the right idea with the Android platform, but in practice it's not as good as it should be.
Cell phones, no matter what OS they are running on, are locked so tight with their carriers that they can only be open so much. Sure, developers like openness, but the iPhone OS, or the Windows Mobile platform both have a developing group that is larger than G1's.
If they really wanted to make Android open, they'd let users put it on WinMo and iPhone as a secondary OS.
The only thing i like about the Android is that its one step closer to open....when we can break teh back of the monopolies and people can start having mobile devices that arent all about who makes money, but rather functionality.
Steve Ballmer has to be the single most out of touch CEO on the planet. His arrogance and stupidity, while no longer targeted at Apple since they made him look like a complete idiot is now aimed at Google where he's about to get his rear kick yet again. Microsoft is quickly becoming totally irrelevant - can you say AOL?
Balmer always craps on newcomers, he has to for PR reasons. Microsoft is being attacked from all directions and it's becoming pretty clear (to me anyway) that Apple and Google can smell blood in water and will eventually tear at microsofts edges until it's a much smaller company.
hahahahah how little did they know...
