Apple's Walmart Deal Will Effectively Kill Google's Android

You are missing the point of Android. Remember that spectrum auction a little while back...remember the inclusion of language in one of the nationwide blocks that stated it must allow an open platform...now you know why Andriod exists (not to say Apple couldn't open the iphone once the ATT contract expires). I don't expect much from the first generation of Andriod phones. Google is trying to get the lay of the land. They have never done retail, nor been involved in the hypercompetitive cell phone market. When the open spectrum goes live (and devices/companies can take advantage of it) it will change the cell phone market forever.
