As pointed out by other readers Symbian ISN'T the brand that Nokia holds up to their end users. I think it's a mistake to advertise Android to the masses as a brand. Sun tried that with Java and it didn't work because they spent so much of their resources advertising Java to the end user they didn't actually do compelling things with it. Contrast that with Flash where Adobe did compelling things with it, developers wanted to do that, and users loved it. First doing something compelling to attract attention, then you can tell them how you did it. Not the other way around.
