His points clearly illustrate some reasons why the iPhone will continue to dominate Android in the market however. Every day I just see Android becoming more irrelevant. It's actually scary looking at how much promise this platform had and how quickly Google and partners have completely fucked it up. They have perfectly followed MS treatment of CE/Mobile.

Remember that the person who wrote that article is a developer. A geek, just as much as many of us here. Average consumers are going to like Android even less compared to the iPhone.

UPDATE: Someone may be trying to get Android out of the woods. I just read a news blurb claiming all US Android phones will be eligible for a 2.1 upgrade - one day. That's a start, but they have to roll this out world-wide and it needs to become mandatory that anyone that uses a branded Android install on a mobile phone must do day-and-date updates - in other words, match Google's update/release schedule to the day. They also need to kill all default custom skinning on anything branded Android and mentioning "Google" at all.
