I'm highly trained in deciphering English when it is someones second language, so it helps. :D

Britas shouldn't be used on salt water.

Does it damage it? I know it doesn't desalinate the water but maybe Vader wants to preserve the trout he caught in clean brine. Pic makes perfect sense to me, Vader is clearly on a survival course and finds your lack of faith in what he is doing disturbing.

I meant those that can realistically adopt another OS otherwise I would have mentioned RIM too.

Man, you are GOLDEN here, then. :) So much horribly, broken English! Even an American English speaker like myself has a hard time understanding it!

The other thing you are doing wrong is attributing that to Android. How exactly do you come to that conclusion seeing as everybody is making androids (except Nokia), some turning a huge profit, some not. And the one not making androids is showing the worst results.

That's the thing--I really don't understand his argument because he keeps dancing from point-to-point instead of making a clear point... a reply is made.. then he keeps saying that he's making a different point... a reply to THAT is made.. then he says it's ANOTHER point. There's a lot of dancing around lately in a few threads and the popular excuse seems to be to excuse it based on a lack of language fluency. It makes for an awkward debate that seems conveniently dismissive of the point if it looks like you're not making a good one. :)

One thing about Android is that almost freaking everybody does it - which in turn, sees the market of both quality products and crapware as well.

That plus a lot of "LOL, no ICS for you!" for most of the Android devices available in the market.

Android, to some manufacturers, seem to be some sort of a get-rich-quick scheme cash cow.

The question appears, once again: How is any of this better than Android's experience? If it's not better, and all other things are better on Android because of its larger install base then why bother with anything Nokia has done?

Let's take this a step further...

Google: LOL! Stuck at Cupcake or Gingerbread? No ICS for you!
Microsoft: LOL! Got a second generation WP7 device? We mispoke! No Apollo for you!
Blackberry: LOL! No Blackberry 10 for you! More strippers and booze for us!
Nokia: LOL! We lied! No support for you!
Apple: LOL! We came out with the iPhone 4S! No iPhone 5 for you!

And the ultimate...

Stephen Elop: LOL! You like Symbian and MeeGo? HA! I'm driving Nokia into the ground... I mean, enjoy WP7!
