Google: Android fragmentation not 'bad thing'
,----[ Quote ]
| Google has defended its decision to allow
| unfettered Android tweaking, saying that
| although this may fragment the Googlephone
| market, it's what's best for developers.
|
| "Everybody talks about fragmentation as a
| bad thing, but I think you need to look at
| it from the perspective of the developer,"
| Eric Chu, Google's group manager for Android
| mobile platforms, told the wireless-happy
| OpenMobileSummit in downtown San Francisco
| this afternoon. "How much work does the
| developer have to do to address the
| fragmentation? If there are a million
| devices and they're in three fragments, they
| don't care."

Giz Explains: Android, and How It Will Take Over the World
,----[ Quote ]
| But the first step in the Android takeover
| is necessarily the phones. Android 2.0 means
| the handsets aren't just interesting
| anymore; they're truly buyable. As Matt said
| this week:
|
| In time, Android very well could be the
| internet phone, hands down, in terms of
| raw capabilities.... Android 2.0's
| potential finally feels as enormous as
| the iPhone's, and I get kinda tingly
| thinking about it.
