Woah! Easy!
Not Cool!
Are you saying that people who don't "get" Android are just out of the loop?
In other words...not cool!? Like Android is Cool...It's Now...It's Happenin'...It's Wow!
If you don't jump on board you'll be left behind? Please.
That reminds me of iPhone fanboy talk!
IN MY OPINION of course!
That's not what I said at all. What I did say was that I don't think someone with a phone that came out in November of 2007 should be telling me all about Android and his perception of their growth in the marketplace. I said, in a less direct way, that I have no respect for the comments of a person who is using three year old technology and who is talking about the technology of today.

If that's still not cool, so be it. Believe me, I have been called worse.

Android does have a long way to go, but for a young operating system, it has done some amazing things too. For instance i'm talking to my phone, and it is typing this post.

Android will take over as the operating system of choice for the average Joe and the hard core tweaker, in my opinion.

However it was released B 4 it was ready for primetime. It's handling of contacts through Google Is week. There are numerous issues i would like resolved. But in the long run i believe google will do better at implementing the needed changes than microsoft for apple ever will.

Butt today, I still miss the organization and business attitude of windows mobile.

Do what you want, as for me, I am sticking with the Droid, to learn the future, even though I miss the past (Wm).
I agree with you that Android was released a little too soon, but give me an OS that isn't. The fact is that, even after being released too early, Android is still a better and more stable system than WinMo. And the advancements are coming to Android much faster than they are WinMo.

But I must disagree with you about the lack of organization and business attitude of Android. I use mine for syncing to my corporate Exchange server. I am in IT and have both a port scanner and network mapping app installed. So for me, it is exactly what I need for work. And it simply works, which is a bonus.

Do I miss the days of WinMo and flashing my TP2 every 15 minutes? Sometimes. But I don't miss it enough to get rid of a device that just runs good and pick up a device that needs to be flashed immediately to make the battery last and to get better radio signal.
