Not to be a party-pooper...

But I think I'll put my money on Google. If nothing else, Android trying to nip at Apple's heels will help both companies.

I got to share my HTC Hero around the other night and watch some friends find the games. Completely intuitive - just as much as with the iPhone. And remember it's running Android 1.5 + HTC Sense. Newer stuff is icing, really. I like that it can play Ogg Vorbis - so I've resurrected my .ogg archive and put my MD player on holiday. Next: moving all my passwords from my Newton...

OTOH, there have been attempts to put Android on a bigger screen, with mixed results. Maybe this is that Google really need to achieve for Android 3.0.

Wade.
