And unicorns and monkeys will start flying out of my butt...
There is absolutely no possibility that Android or any bastardisation of it can or will be used for anything involving moderate productivity apart from a geek niche.
Why?
People really don't have the time or inclination to meddle around and learn new interface paradigms for the sake of anything other than consuming. For people who earn cash or actually have to get shit done, it's too much of a context switch to get over. Not only that, it actually wrecks productivity.
It's hard enough for people to move from Windows to Linux.
And don't say about OSX market share or penetration as an example - there are precisely sod all Macs in the majority of businesses.
People aren't even buying Windows 8 because it's too different.
People actually really like Windows XP-7 and Office 97-2010 and don't want anything else. Sorry if this is painful news.
Even smartphones are starting to piss people off. I've seen so many people switching back to feature-phones like Nokia Asha and cheap Samsungs recently, it's unreal.
