Tech Crunch just ran a great article about some of the problems associated with Android's openness. I agree; if Google wants to create a legitimate competitor to iOS, they have to decide what direction to take the platform in, not merely issue updates and new features once in a while.
I love how none of his gripes apply to me. My phone came with no bloatware, I got Android 2.2 over the air, my carrier can't do anything about me tethering even if they could determine I was doing it, which they can't, my phone is nine months old, and is still one of the top 3 fastest types of stock phone in the U.S. (according to Quadrant) and I'm pretty happy with how cheap my plan is - though the 3g service can be sketchy at times. (my only gripe, and has nothing to do with the phone itself)
