The article is undoubtedly correct in explaining why Google chooses to keep Honeycomb closed at this time. However, this defeats the entire point of making Android "open."
Of course there will be droves of handset makers releasing crappy handsets with Honeycomb that is not ready. But perhaps one company out there might do something innovative and useful, and that's what you get when you open thing up.
Open always means tons of dreck, but it sometimes means something unexpected and good, that's the whole point. If Google doesn't want tons of dreck, it can stop pretending to be open.
