Excuse me! Apple being open!
Here it is from a Developer:
Apple’s applications are written in Objective C a non standardized language that is run on Apple products almost exclusively. Android is an extension of the Java language from Sun Microsystems.
Now kids to program using Apple’s SDK you have to use a Mac so your already out $500-1100 and you havent even downloaded the SDK.
Android on the other hand can be developed in textpad for
G-d’s sake (personally I dont recomend it but you can). For a true IDE(Integrated Developing Environment) Android’s API suggest using Eclipse (by the way thats free too) can be run on ANY computer (Windows, Mac, Linux, Unix, Solaris). I have no interest in buying a Mac.
Oh and about the Online music business it was a matter of time before someone did that Apple just happened to be there when it went down.

A win is buy one G1 get one free? Soon to be two free perhaps.
That is biz model?
Errr. A model for failure.
Google has no interest in phones other than to capture all phone users as its audience.
Google is not in the phone biz.

Yes, some time has come and gone. Now would be a great time to sit back and take a look at the History of Android and remind yourselves once again the real reason behind it all. It’s definitely been a win for Google. http://bit.ly/14441x

Yeah I kinda thing the list is a bit extreme, sure it has it short comings. But I’m still picking one up next month.

Anyway, Indeed the Iphone had its short coming ( no GPS, 8 gigs max and a bad battery life )

All in all, I think the Iphone is indeed a good and aceptable device, it just doesn’t have the WOW factor for me because I’m kind of a geek, and like to talk stuff an not design.

I think android is a truly good platform and i can’t wait for it to be combined with Nokia, LG or Any other phone manufacturers. Because if you combine a good OS with phone builders that have years of experience, you’re bound to have some great products.

“The G1 will end up like Linux, nobody will use it.” Hahahahahahahaha xD

You don;t use linux ? I’m indeed to am running windows ( 7en en vista ) but i know plenty darn well how many times i come in to contact with linux on a daily bases, if i go to a social networking page in Holland( the equivalent of myspace ) it’s soley linux run, even at work. Almost all devices run on linux, even the scale does xD. So please don’t say Linux isn’t used because you can’t see it :P

You must be one of the 17 people doing so then. :)

You see, it turns out lots of people will pay for value. So much so that I’m predicting close to 100MM Apple touch platform users in 18-24 months. That’s the fastest growing, most innovative, most lucrative segment of the industry.

“How did that old, soggy fairytale work out on the iPod-killers platform?”

It didn’t, and you know why ? Because the Ipod was really a ‘new’ device. It had some remarkable features that other mp3/4 players didn’t have at the them, not to mention the fact that most mp3′s of that time where limited to 512 mb or a bit more. So the Ipod really piked up the marked there. Because there was no real alternative. There is now ( I’m using my Creative Zen non-stop )

Apple iPhone had its shortcomings as well when it came out
