Steve Jobs: Google's "Don't Be Evil" Mantra is "Bulls***"
Jobs said that [Google] "entered the phone business. Make no mistake they want to kill the iPhone. We won't let them."
I don't think I can agree less with this. Yes, I have been a Google fanboy as of late for full disclosure; however, I believe Google entered the phone business to provide some sort of competition. Apple's iPhone was running away with the phone business for a solid 3 years, I even owned an iPhone for that long. The Android finally provides an alternative choices for people who want a good smart phone. On top of that, I believe the Android targets a different audience than the iPhone. It targets a more tech savvy crowd. Most of my friends and family still haven't even heard about Android phones. They have, of course, read about the Nexus One, but aren't that interested in the carriers nor the price. For 100 dollars people can purchase an iPhone 3G and instantly have around 120,000 apps. This seems much more compelling to them than a phone that provides great ssh clients and customization.
