Sprint Pushes Android 2.1 Update Back to Q2
Apples update will be on time...
perfect example... all the Sprint Fandroids that still cant use 2.2 because Sprint/Google doesnt care.
**REMINDER** the carriers are are in business to make money, they pay Samsung,HTC and Motorola to program the first iteration of the Android OS. Carriers do not want to spend a lot of money on programmers for (free) software updates when they c...

I laugh at how little you know about an industry you can't help but comment on.
And genius, 2.2 isn't out yet
You, like deepbluesky, should just stop posting. You're just embarrassing yourself.
Exactly why Apple makes the largest profit of all Handset Manufacturers. They over charge for their products, lock everyone into proprietary equipment. And talk about outdated? Apple just keeps adding mainstream programs with every new phone that everyone else has been enjoying for months or a year and they refuse to let you do anything without Steve's permission.
Google has spent tons of money on prepping their OS before and a...

whether you purchase an Android phone or an Apple phone you pay the same cost for the device and the same MRC.
if you would rather support google that sells your personal information, keeps a copy of your address book and uses your search results to market you then fine. But I chose Apple because they keep my information private, write error free software and assemble top notch hardware.
Being a fanboy is one thing. Being ignorant of the fact that Apple will use your information to their advantage is another.
Like how they were months late for push notification?
Like they mention how Flash support is on the way?
If by "on time" you mean once a year for a major update?
If by "error free" you mean how MobileMe deleted now only information but account all together?
If by "error free" you mean how Snow Leopard deleted all data on people's computer even if it was backed up.
If by paying for AT&T crappy coverage and services instead of paying Verizon for the same price but better service and coverage, then your right.
You can choose Apple, with all their faults just like every company is going to have. I rather have my Nexus thank you.
With the money Apple is making, their customers should be enjoying the very latest and newest things possible. not waiting while everyone else is enjoying them months ahead. I.E......Sms, Multitasking etc.
Don't think Apple is exempt from obtaining personal records.

Carriers are in it to make money... Really? How is Apple any better? For the same item, you pay *MORE* for *LESS* functionality. Yet they are supposedly better? Fashion is over-priced.
As others have mentioned: *NO ONE* has 2.2. It isn't released yet. The newest phones due out this fall should have it.
Here's a clue: Apple doesn't care about you either. They only care about your money. Why do you think they keep you locked into *THEIR* eco-system?
While Google has issues - atleast I'm not locked to one version of a single phone... that only gets updated once per year... with features that are barely keeping up with the competition.
I'll pick Google *ANY DAY* of the w...

And as Menno pointed out, Apple only releases updates once a year!! Android, in less than 2 years, has evolved into something truly amazing. 2.1 rocks, even on my hacked myTouch. Yes, you can talk about fragmentation, I can talk about stagnation, whatever. El Goog is putting a stop to most of the fragmentat...
