iPhone was sooo close…but fell short in two ways:
1) It’s AT&T only. You are locked in, so shut up and like it.
2) Only apps that Apple approves become available for download. That means no browsers that compete with Safari, no Skype, no apps with adult content etc.

If it weren’t for those shortcomings I think everybody would get an iPhone, no questions asked. Well, except maybe the folks who insist on a button-keyboard and don’t like touch screens. But whatever, I’m glad there is competition and I hope the winner will be the one who best caters to the consumer’s needs. So far LiMo and Android haven’t won me over either but I’m keeping my eye on them.

Here is a different perspective .. Crossing the chasm with Android: Can we view disruptive initiatives like Android in the context of the existing value chain? http://opengard...g_the_ch_2.html

Thats funny, every developer I know is playing with the Android SDK and nobody is touching the iPhone. I will consider making iPhone apps as soon as their SDK is available on a PC… doubt that will ever happen.

Every game developer I know is already playing with iPhone SDK, but nobody is touching the Android SDK. That tells the whole story.

Here’s the TLDR version of this story:

Android has applications.

LiMo doesn’t.
