- dragonelite 7y agoThey are pressured to do this, if the US wasn't so dickish about it they would just release a certified Android.

- dragonelite 7y agoWhat you say is China closed market is a good action, given that they can't keep themselves save from a democratic agent? The world is more grey then most people think, but people have short memories. Mostly because people don't really care and just want to life and provide for their loves ones.

- hrktb 7y agoit’s not anemic in China though
- seanmcdirmid 7y agoChina has its own harmonized app stores, the issue will be how the phone will work without he G-stack for non Chinese markets.
- Stevvo 7y agoThey are probably expecting users to download Gapps themselves. They don't have any other choice here; it's launch without them or don't launch at all.
