    i quoted a part of it, and was going to link to it but forgot. Meh

    there's a difference between offensive, and defensive attacks.

    Do you expect them to lie down while Apple try to systematically crush android OEMs?

    Apple started it. To quote Gruber: "fair’s fair once you start shooting in a patent war, and Apple started the shooting in this one."

    Sweet. It's the talk client that handles all the market stuff, and if that's got multiple account support in honeycomb, then that's the reason why market does too

    No, that link is unrelated to the android stuff.

    You're right, you can have multiple email addresses for gmail, but not for market. There's one account associated with your phone, and you can change it by either doing a reset, or crashing some of the framework files with root access

    You need a Google account for Google services (market, gmail etc) but can set one up from the phone. And yes, android is pretty much a one user (well, email address) phone for the very same core services I mentioned.

    Someone is confused by math and/or the word "almost".

    MMI has billions in cash and equivalents on hand, and no debt[citation needed]. Google is effectively paying an amount roughly equal to their 2010 profits.

    Google also sell android to the ODMs. They pay for GAPPS

    Preaching to the choir here, I have a Galaxy S II, and am well aware of the advantages and shortcomings of android. Just wanted to point out to GP that the things he mentioned are possible, even if you have to go through a few hoops. (JB and adapter for HDMI)

    You can actually do all those things with an iPad... VLC for the media, jailbreak for the emulators, and a 30pin to HDMI connector that Apple sells for the HDMI

    Urgh. Slashdot mobile site is an improvement, but still horrible to use in a handheld device. My comment is in the middle of no where :(

    Talk is cheap, and I'll wait till HTC actually ship products with unlockable bootloaders. And their locked devices (sensation, flyer etc) most probably won't be unlocked. Much prefer Samsung & LG's attitude. Once you go low enough there is no lock down at al

    If they didn't, It'd be harder to pull stunts like closing the Honeycomb source.

    They haven't closed the source, they're delaying the source because they're worried about the user experience when it inevitably gets ported to a phone. At the moment, honeycomb is designed to work on 1280x800 screen res devices, and that's it. They''ll release the source when it's ready.
