Google Might Lose the Smartphone War

When Gary Krakow said no gPhone in 2008, people scoffed, but they were wrong. T-Mobile will have the Android, but Google is facing tough roadblocks that prevent the company from distributing its operating system to other phones. This leaves the door wide open for the competition.

iPhone is not a smartphone, it's a gaming console so it doesn't stand a chance against Blackberry.

btw. iPhone is almost twice more expensive than bold 9700 so how do you expect them to lower the price that much???

Google can do much better than any other company in smartphone world.

If they don't release their own device, that's OK they can mange with existing devices & OS only.

The predictions against google could br right or wrong. But don't underestimate Google. If they accept the challenges, they can achieve.
