If Google plays its cards right, its unveiling of the first Android-powered phone on Tuesday will prove to be more than a distraction from iPhone-mania – it will be the moment the search giant capitalizes on Apple’s control issues. I am personally excited because this means there will be an OPEN PLATFORM, a NEW OS, and as always, Google’s consistent approach to organic growth of Open Source and Free solutions on the internet and elsewhere. I really do love Google’s thinking.
However, do note that they don’t do it purely from motives that are to benefit all people, they make their money in ads. However, who doesn’t anymore, right? I say, bring on the Google Apps, the Google Search, the Google opportunities. And bring on the re-balancing of this very out of control Apple iPhone world!
