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.
