Jason Perlow Is Sick to Death of Android (Daringfireball)
Jason Perlow:
> When it came time for my two phone contracts to renew on Verizon, I had
decided within a span of a few months to purchase the Motorola Droid Bionic
and the Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
>
> I had believed both of these devices would be well-supported by Google and
would be most resistant to the fragmentation and carrier bloatware issues, as
the first device was being made by a company that was about to be acquired by
Google, and the second being the flagship Google Experience handset device for
Ice Cream Sandwich.
>
> In both cases, I turned out to be wrong.
Can you imagine being so dumb — or blinded by idealism — as to take until
now to see how fundamentally broken Android is in these regards?
