Go out and ask your friends who've never heard of Chrome or blogs or even Flickr (the not-so-techie people) if they have a clue what Android is. Ask them if they've heard of the iPhone. Chances are, they've heard of the iPhone, but have no clue on what Android is. A good majority of the world's population isn't as well-informed of the on-goings in the tech world, contrary to belief. I've a handful of friends who couldn't name three different browsers off the tops of their heads, who happen to own iPhones. The iPhone isn't directed at just the tech-inclined group. The Android may be. The non-techies of the world don't look at if a phone has the API's to begin developing applications; they look at the sleekness and ease-of-use. And face it, the iPhone looks better. This isn't to say that I'm anti-Android. Quite the contrary. I'm highly anticipating the Android; this message was just directed to those that believe that it may be an iPhone-killer. On the other hand, it may just taking away some attention from smart phones.. Agreed!

People are mistakenly assuming that to be successful in this market, you need to beat the iPhone. The reality is, this device looks like it competes far more effectively against Microsoft and Nokia smart phones, still a huge part of the market. It may be especially successful in the enterprise segment, in fact, I could see it eventually killing off RIM, with RIM in the interrim writing a Blackberry client for Android. In the long term however, open standards mobile/push email, like the IETF Lemonade project spell the eventual doom of proprietary push mobile email.
