I found lots of irony in that.. HP is/was a manufacturer, not a software company. (taken a look at the printer software lately? very bloated)
what hardware manufacturer is binding microsoft?

There is more customization on an iPhone than u give credit I think. Not as much as android maybe, but it's highly customizable.

HP still has the Palm employees and they work on software...HP split up its business and is actually even looking to sell its pc manufacturing business (similar to how IBM sold theirs to Lenovo)..either way since they are not related to any hardware manufacturing any more as far as cellphones is concerned it makes them the only one not tied to a hardware manufacturer.

The one binding down M$ is same one that is binding MeeGo..Nokia...I mean M$ gave them over a billion and gave the advantages over others..not to mention M$ promised to make use of Nokia's services in their WP7 phones..so whether you buy an HTC, Samsung or etc you will have access to Nokia's software..so yes that is binding down...
