The response to Android in markets where the iPhone isn't carrier hobbled like with AT&T is lukewarm, to say the least.


It doesn't help that the carriers stole the goose that lays the golden egg by rebranding the phones; they'd be doing better if people were shopping for "Android" phones.

But of course they aren't.


To makers, Android isn't a competitor to the iPhone, its the base upon which you build that competitor.
