Andy created the extremely popular Sidekick phones and Android OS.
- HillaryBriss 9y agoWould Android be a success if it hadn't been for Google's ability to push it very powerfully onto the market? I'm not knocking Mr. Rubin and I'm not saying I could have done anything anywhere near as successful myself. I couldn't have. He's clearly more talented and motivated than I am. But, I also wonder: Is Android anything but the number one, huge outlier in his business life? Isn't it plainly evident, even now, that Android is the biggest business success Mr. Rubin will ever accomplish? If Mr. Rubin is truly a powerful, free-thinking force for life-enhancing technological innovation, uh, why did he go away for multiple years and ... come back with ... another phone? Again, I'm not saying I'm as good as he is. Very far from it. But, isn't way more skepticism in order?
