iPhone OS 4.0: The great Android 2.1 imitator

,----[ Quote ]
| Last year I wrote an article, which 
| explored the nature of the rivalries 
| between the big three: Google, Apple and 
| Microsoft. In that article, I posited that 
| Googleâs entry into smartphones, the 
| development of Chrome, and the firmâs 
| titanic efforts in the cloud and with 
| advertising not only obsoleted Microsoftâs 
| presence in these spaces, but elevated 
| Google to Microsoftâs old role as Appleâs 
| arch nemesis.

And The Next Battle Is Apple vs. Google... As Microsoft/Yahoo Fade Off Into The Sunset?

,----[ Quote ]
| While plenty of virtual ink has been 
| spilled over the Google/Apple device 
| battles, could they be approaching a bigger 
| online battle as well? It's certainly not 
| outside the realm of possibility -- and 
| given its control over the devices it 
| sells, perhaps it could get a pretty good 
| starting position with a search engine. 
| Still, it does seem like a bit of a reach 
| for Steve Jobs and company. At this point, 
| it seems more like some analyst just 
| looking for a more interest "Google vs." 
| prediction than anything serious at this 
| point.

Is Steve Jobs Ignoring History, Or Trying To Rewrite It?

,----[ Quote ]
| Still, it seems like history could repeat 
| itself, with the rest of the industry 
| closing the innovation gap with Apple fast. 
| With Google subsidizing the mobile OS, 
| other phone manufacturers have an economic 
| advantage as well. Jobs is trying 
| everything he can to hold back the Android 
| advance, including suing HTC, the largest 
| manufacturer of Android phones. He is 
| fighting Google with everything heâs gotâ
| undercutting Googleâs pending acquisition 
| of AdMob by entering the mobile advertising 
| market and creating fear among Android 
| partners with his patent lawsuit.

Will Linux succeed through the Android OS?

,----[ Quote ]
| Last week I finally dumped my Blackberry
| smartphone and got myself one of the
| Verizon Droid phones; specifically the
| Droid Eris. I was waiting for the Nexus One
| to come to Verizon Wireless for quite some
| time and when I read that it was to be
| offered through Google only (unlocked and
| without a contract deal) for $530, I said
| forget about it. I will go to the store
| instead and get one of the Droid phones
| (Motorola Droid & HTC Droid Eris).
