Wow, that’s an ignorant thing to say. Considering apps are independently developed, it’s upon those individuals to write/port apps, not T-Mobile’s. T-Mobile doesn’t own the software that people make, nor are they responsible for porting someone else’s work so someone else can profit from it. And certainly, they cannot sell someone else’s ported work.

10,000 apps — that’s something to brag about? Maybe Cole Brodman needs to reference the number of apps available on the iPhone platform, or for that matter, Windows Mobile.

And don’t give me that “Android hasn’t been around as long as those platforms” line. Android should have hit 25K apps by now — when it was launched, there were already a ton of apps that should/could have easily been ported over from other OS’es (iPhone and Windows Mobile).

What are you talking about? These apps run on all the existing Android devices. There might be a few quirks with some really old app begin “CupCake” compatible but these have mostly been patched. have you even used an android device?

Lets not be foolish here. T-Mobile is for “openness” as long as it makes them money and not for it when it doesn’t or cuts into their profits. It’s also something they can talk about instead of their lack of 3G. 10,000 Android apps? Right. How many of those run on all current or coming soon Android phones? Very few.
