I was just on YOUTUBE and I was watching how this pohone does a lot of things the IPHONE cant'..
- run apps parallel with each other .. you can do many things at once UNLIKE THE IPHONE
- customize your homescreen and apps ... UNLIKE THE IPHONE ..
- hwo third party apps can integrate with each other UNLIKE THE IPHONE
- How to copy and seamless switch to another app to PASTE the item ...

Shall I continue... this thing is way more functional than the IPHONE .. .the thing is It's gonna be hard convincing people .. .once the public sees the light THe Iphone as we know it will DIE ...

of course the IPHONE would survive if they decide to loosen up a little bit.. ]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/98535-google-phone-dream-phone-might-be-a-little-strong?source=feed#comment-274171 274171 Sun, 05 Oct 2008 16:39:00 -0400
I like the idea of Android, but as long as the cell carriers act as gatekeepers, then Android is hamstrung. It's great if a developer writes a tethering app or a Voip app, but if the cell carrier does not allow tethering or Voip, what good does that do you?

There are 3 players involved here. The hardware manufacturer, the OS, and the cell carrier. For the most part, the cell carrier dictated to the manufacturer what features would be allowed, I don't see how Android will change that. ]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/98535-google-phone-dream-phone-might-be-a-little-strong?source=feed#comment-273993 273993 Sun, 05 Oct 2008 12:20:41 -0400 The Android open development platform is key.

The iPhone is a nice gadget... although I don't salivate over it like some.
But Android will offer competitive synergies that the locked down iPhone can not.

Think of this analogy (thanks Jared Diamond):

-the iPhone is all powerful China in the year 1408 - centrally controlled, impressive, and very dominant in it's sphere.

-the Android platform is Europe in 1408 - decentalized, competing against one another, with only a loose cultural affinity.

Now step ahead 100 - 200 - 300 ... years and see what becomes of these arrangements.... and more importantly - why.

Android is a force to be reckoned with ... and the G1 is just the first seedling to emerge from the fertile ground.

AMZN sold their European DVD rental business, while at the same time experienced a reduction in gross margins due to price promotions, Amazon Prime, and other factors. Breaking it out, they went from 27.1% in gross margin to 25.8% in North America, and grew 20.8 to 21.5% from their international channel.

If Steele can sell the bad mortgages, and get rid of the leftover executives from 1st Union, WB might survive as an independent company.

If not, somebody will take them over for less than $12 per share (in stock). ]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/87344-wachovia-waiting-for-a-new-entry-point?source=feed#comment-217110 217110 Tue, 29 Jul 2008 02:37:27 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/87344-wachovia-waiting-for-a-new-entry-point?source=feed#comment-217041 217041 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 22:29:23 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/87291-amazon-com-likely-to-remain-range-bound-for-time-being?source=feed#comment-217023 217023 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 22:05:22 -0400
In NY at least.

Wonder if that will affect sales at all?]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/87344-wachovia-waiting-for-a-new-entry-point?source=feed#comment-216755 216755 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 15:41:07 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/87344-wachovia-waiting-for-a-new-entry-point?source=feed#comment-216647 216647 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 13:23:20 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/87344-wachovia-waiting-for-a-new-entry-point?source=feed#comment-216646 216646 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 13:22:41 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/87344-wachovia-waiting-for-a-new-entry-point?source=feed#comment-216618 216618 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 13:00:49 -0400
"I called the bottom three times and failed lamentaly three times. Oh well. But trust me, I'm good at calling bottoms.

Since I refuse to accept I may not know jack shit about what I'm doing, let me call another 4th bottom and have the arrogance to actually give that advice publicly so that other suckers may join in on my mistakes."]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/87344-wachovia-waiting-for-a-new-entry-point?source=feed#comment-216472 216472 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 10:47:36 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/87291-amazon-com-likely-to-remain-range-bound-for-time-being?source=feed#comment-216333 216333 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 09:12:52 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/87344-wachovia-waiting-for-a-new-entry-point?source=feed#comment-216280 216280 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 08:17:24 -0400
A safer bet would be driving to Las Vegas and laying down money, pre-season, on which team would win the Superbowl based on the team's colors matching the most attractive barmaid's eyes. ]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/87344-wachovia-waiting-for-a-new-entry-point?source=feed#comment-216278 216278 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 08:14:17 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/87344-wachovia-waiting-for-a-new-entry-point?source=feed#comment-216212 216212 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 04:53:54 -0400
