I'm a Microsoft and Intel Shareholder and this thread is MUSIC to my ears :rollin .
So we have an expensive and solid OS from Apple that ties you to their hardware and a cheap/free OS from Google that throws up a shedload of problems if you're name is Fred and its a Tuesday. And you have to buy bolt-ons to make it actually work.
At Intel , Craig Barrett coined the phrase "Ubiquitous Interactive Device" for the PC.
Question is ... Are we there yet? with these slab-like phone/PC hybrids.
Predictions ...
1) Nokia/Microsoft will win, and it will take 3-5 years.
2) Jobs will try for a comeback but he won't make it back above ground-level.
