>You may hate Apple, or the iPhone, or Steve Jobs, or whatever, but that doesn't mean Google does everything right, or that they never sacrifice consumer interests for their own. What a weird perspective. Do you think I hate Apple, or Steve Jobs, or the iPhone. Alternately do you think I love Google? I think you're the one who sees it in black and white. However, let's go back- >Do you think it's evil that Sony controls the Playstation? Or that Tivo controls the Tivo box? Interesting that you mention that, because the post that I countered supposed that Android was undoing the good that Apple was doing -- essentially that Android is an evil competitor to the all-good Apple that was poised to bring us Utopia. The iPhone is a great phone. It, nor any single corporation, should not dominate, however. We played that monopoly game before, through a little company named Microsoft, and we should have learned our lessons. I hope that Windows Mobile and RIM's latest launch a serious assault, now that Android essentially opened the opportunity for them (in the same way that Firefox opened the opportunity for Safari and Chrome and various other browsers).
