    A First Look at the Google Phone - Bits - Technology - New York Times Blog

    Google is setting itself up to play "Microsoft" to Apple's "Apple". In a replay of 1984, Apple has produced an exciting new product (the iPhone), and made it proprietary (no third party hardware, no open platform for developers, not open to multiple phone networks).

    Google, is "pulling a Microsoft" by taking all that is good about the iPhone and making it open (any network, any hardware manufacturer, any phone network).

    Has Apple learned nothing? I guess they only want 10% of the phone market, while Google and it's partners take the rest.
