Android User Spends 60 Days In WebOS Land

An anonymous reader writes "About six months ago, however, I began to wonder about how the other mobile products had grown. When the HTC HD7 crossed my path a little while ago, I decided to abandon my Nexus S and live among the Windows Phone folks for awhile. The experience was fun, but I eventually went back to my Nexus S. About a month later, I was presented with the opportunity to repeat the experiment, only this time with a Palm Pre Plus. With the HP Touchpad on its way, I wanted to get a feel for how WebOS worked, explore the differences, and take a look into the community that was still loyal to WebOS."

Android was a lot like Desktop Linux: I spent more time tweaking in than using it, praying for that mythical configuration where it would actually feel polished.
Obviously you either don't have any work to do on your computer, or you're lying about using linux.
The purpose of customization isn't to look "polished" it is to make it a more effective tool.
Next time, don't bother with linux. You're worried mostly about how it looks, instead of what you can do with it. It will never be for you, and we don't need the pollution.
