I wish I could install android os on iPhone like bootcamp is used for windows on mac os snow leopard.

AS A PRODUCT...can it fail as something else?

Ahmed, I believe Robert is trying to distinguish between the product and the platform.

Seems strange that after more than 2 years nobody has been able to top the iPhone. This speaks very high of Apple ...and very low of the rest.

I read in FT about Android OS that there was update known as 1) cupcake 2) Donut 3) Eclair and now speculation, 4)some bakery product beginning F and then 5)something beginning with G, probably "GPhone" ? I hope that update will bring something to cheer.

I forgot to add that the next Android update is called "Flan".

ashish, great deduction there... it's well known that their OS codenames have been derived from pastry... and one could also assume that the alpha and beta OS versions were pastries starting with the letters a and b, respectively, of course.

Droid may not live up to the iPhone standard. But, to the extent all platforms are innovating to catch up to Apple, we all benefit from better products.

Sorry, Just go the Google and type "Google starts to reap rewards of smartphone openness" without the quotes and it should display the webpage without any hassle.

That's too bad. Verizon is my current carrier and I'm overdue to upgrade my phone. I'm a Mac fan and would love to own an iPhone but there's no way I'm putting up with AT&T's bad coverage to do it.

I'm still waiting for the HTC Passion to drop. It looks like it will be better than the DROID

"Levitt and Dubner tell the horseshit story as a prelude to discussing climate change: “Just as equine activity once threatened to stomp out civilization, there is now a fear that human activity will do the same.” As usual, they say, the anxiety is unwarranted. First, the global-warming threat has been exaggerated; there is uncertainty about how, exactly, the earth will respond to rising CO2 levels, and uncertainty has “a nasty way of making us conjure up the very worst possibilities.” Second, solutions are bound to present themselves: “Technological fixes are often far simpler, and therefore cheaper, than the doomsayers could have imagined.”"

That's it. I'm moving to Canada. Oh, wait...

I shall laugh at all of you from my underground bunker the day yellowstone erupts and we have no geoengineering skillz to deal with the aftermath. :)

"This PEP proposes a temporary moratorium (suspension) of all changes to the Python language syntax, semantics, and built-ins for a period of at least two years from the release of Python 3.1. In particular, the moratorium would include Python 3.2 (to be released 18-24 months after 3.1) but allow Python 3.3 (assuming it is not released prematurely) to once again include language changes. This suspension of features is designed to allow non-CPython implementations to "catch up" to the core implementation of the language, help ease adoption of Python 3.x, and provide a more stable base for the community."

This is exciting. I hope this means Python adoption will be much more widespread -- I'm convinced it's going to be the successor to Java.
