I don't know if I agree with this so much. While the OS is much more stable. I can't remember the last time I had to restart the device because something got at the core OS and killed it.
There is a LOT to be desired with Android:
A decent base of commercial applications that support business users. The phone was sold as a power device, yet, it has almost NO business-centric applications. That's a huge problem
A "marketplace" that is a joke. Google makes its money on search engine technology, yet the marketplace isn't searchable. WTF?
Can't install to SD card. Why has this taken until 2.2 to come out? That seems such an odd thing to not build in from the beginning. This is a classic example of developers and not UI folks being in charge of core development.
How many "pretty" girl applications do we need in the marketplace? For gods' sake, we can get rid of so many applications that are completely useless and instead make some that everyone KNOWS we need:
--PIM
--Decent unified email application
--Decent drawing application
--Decent Word processor
There's so much that the Android platform needs that if companies stepped up and started creating things for them, customers would use them.
Let's not even mention how the constant polling of useless Google services drains the battery life out of the devices.
