There is one area in which Samsung is lacking: software. Unlike Apple or RIM, they are entirely dependent on Android. [...] That, however, could change completely if Samsung dominates the Android market like I think it will.
Want to be even more scared?

- dman 16y agoThis cheered me up!
- joebananas 16y agoSo they will ship in 2025 with the hottest in 2010 design as their look then, if he's the lead?
- brianbreslin 16y agoIf samsung is building out their own os using it for only mobile phones seems myopic... Think about all the markets they play in
- dagw 16y agoSamsung already has a mobile OS, called Bada, that they have been shipping for a while now.
- naner 16y agoMeh, hard to get excited over vaporware.
- azakai 16y agoI don't get it, I thought Samsung Bada was not a secret project anymore? http://www.bada.com/ http://www.bada.com/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bada_%28operating_system%29 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bada_%28operating_system%29
- jdub 16y agoI don't think he's talking about Bada (certainly not current Bada... though what he's doing might relate to future-Bada).
- Keyframe 16y agoUnlike Apple or RIM, they are entirely dependent on Android. My Samsung Omnia 7 disagrees (WP7).
- stcredzero 16y agoThe majority installed base plus a strong developer following will make Samsung’s fork the de facto choice...I don’t know if Samsung is capable of such a coup (their software up ‘til now has been garbage) This is precisely the reason no one should be scared. If Samsung attempts this, they would be going up against Google on the field of software. In contrast, I like Apple's plan better -- win on UX, customer service, marketing, and design. Those are all areas where Google is weak.
