Android owes much more to Symbian and Maemo than it does to feature phones like the iPhone.

The WinKia experience is much closer to 'the Apple experience' than Android is; high gloss but functionally crippled, tomb stoning devices that are trapped in a walled garden that's knee deep in rotting manure.
