    Exclamation Why Google Needs Android to be Less Open

    Google's Android OS is a mobile force to be reckoned with. Android smartphones have quickly risen to the top of the food chain, and Android tablets are emerging as a solid rival for Apple's iPad tablet. The "open" nature of the Android OS has contributed to its success, but the lack of control over the Android ecosystem as a whole creates a confusing landscape for app developers and could ultimately hinder the platform.Why Google Needs Android to be Less Open - Yahoo!

    With a free tablet OS with no "rules" - Any company with a clue can glue a touch screen to a CPU, throw a case on it and make a tablet. The "Android tablet experience" becomes a joke. Steve Jobs tried to tell the Android community a year ago and everyone gave him tons of grief about it.
