In the US, only T-mobile (known for the worse connection anywhere) offers an android phone. Moreover, the phone they offer costs as much to the client as the iPhone, while feeling, looking and acting cheaper.
Bad starting point. Once a decent network offers a decent phone competition can start.
Strange reasoning. All files get send over the internet with e-mails, in essence, every document created ends up being sent electronically somewhere, as snail mail is just not an option anywhere. If you worry about Google reading your e-mails, than also your ISP, hosting your imap-server, the ISP of your client, the IT guy maintaining your and his computer system, etc.
So the security of a google document ends up in the same insecure risk category as every e-mail you send.
However, the reputational risk for google when documents get leaked from their server is extremely high, while the risk for your local IT guy or local ISP is probably lower than the price they can get for selling the documents.
In the real world, kids have already a MP3 player. They play MP3 songs, without Digital rights management, and this with whatever player, mostly using itunes to put it on the player.
Welcome monopolist to a late and mature market. Without real file standard monopoly. Your player must be a heck of a lot better than the competition.
I see them only win if they give 3 years warranty instead of 1 year like the others.
