Android hits 1000 apps - http://www.cnn.com/2010/TECH/mobile/10/26/android.100000.apps/index.html

Clearly the most interesting part of Apple’s Q4 earnings call today was a surprise visit by CEO Steve Jobs. Just prior to the Q&A portion of the call, Jobs went into a 5-minute rant about the state of both the smartphone and tablet markets. Notably, he went directly after Google and their “open system” 



    -  Joe Hewitt (Facebook app developer, and early Firefox developer)
  
            Until Android is read/write open, it's no different than iOS to me. Open source means sharing control with the community, not show and tell.

            Compare the Android "open source" model to Firefox or Linux if you want to see how disingenuous that "open" claim is.

            How does Android get away with the "open" claim when the source isn't public until major releases, and no one outside Google can check in?
