I just want a nice phone and tablet that is powerful and doesn’t compromise on all these features from the carrier. Give me the phone with the nice screen, Add on the memory, add in the MP camera, wireless charging, nice battery life. Look, it’s all do-able. Instead, it’s like they release one feature at a time instead of just releasing the ultimate phone tablet just so we buy them. Just give me what I want, from a hardware angle… and give me what I want from a carrier angle (which is just data). Maybe a wireless public band of networked devices that just routed traffic on its own would be way better than this carrier junk.

I digress, but I am so frustrated with not having the device I want like my first HTC dream or current Nexus One, and the phone carriers all suck in their money-sucking ways, I’ll just stick with what I have right now and not give into their crap ways.

That’s why the tablet and phone market isn’t going places fast for companies like Google/etc. No one is giving the consumer what they want. Everyone’s trying to control what they give us. If one company can figure out how to give us all of it, I know they’d do well if they execute it right.

Google needs to figure this out asap, give Andy Rubin a break, fresh ideas to not just compete but leapfrog.

What’s the purpose of Google working with Asus when they own Motorola? Yes, I know Google has claimed Motorola will get no special advantages, but what’s the point of the purchase if they won’t get exclusive access in any respect? Motorola on its own is not profitable. Just allowing management to continue on will be a disaster.

From a user standpoint how long did it take to see a half way working Google Docs implementation on Android? Email, gmail still sucks, no integration.

As for development, the most advanced CASE (Computer Aided Software Engineering ) system I have seen were always classified. If anybody thinks that SIRI is just there to answer “What is the essence of live” good luck adjusting your Assistant in the future.

Also as an exercise watch the upcoming iPad[3] announcement than go back and watch Nexus Galaxy, or NFL against high school.

Apologies to Andy Rubin, but he is a tinkerer techie who is great at managing Android development in the lab. Android needs an entirely different person to work the market (includes hardware manufacturers, telcos, customers, developers, etc.).

You have to pick your core, focus on that, and do it incredibly well. Google has already chosen engineering as it’s core so the type of design and user-centric product experience that Apple provides has been, and will continue to be, impossible for Google to replicate within the current structure. If they want to be real players in this space, they need an independent team that is driven by awesome product people, not engineers.
