I understand very well that my feeling is not (completely) rational - but for me this has another benefit:
Having a Tegra2 based phone and being interested in the latest and greatest Android experience is a .. pain. Counting on NVidia was already annoying for my desktop and Linux, but - well - I kind of am stuck there between a rock and a hard place if I want to play the occasional game.
On a phone? Or tablet? Thank god for alternatives and I'll vote with my wallet. No Tegra* for me until NVidia understands that a driver/documentation for their piece of silicone cannot be treated as secret sauce - and neglected

Also I'm wondering, why people expect anything open based on ARM platform. For ARM, even the platform programmer's manuals are not freely available. On the other hand, Intel for example, was always publishing documentation.
