So basically you're saying that Android is just more noob-friendly? Because to me, a media player (for exemple) is a media player. No matter if you have to run it thru xterm or thru a pretty eye-catchy gui, the end result will be the same: it will play your media (in this exemple).

Ok you got me in the emulator part, but again, that's the gaming department, and linux itself was never good in that. If one would trully be interrested in portable gaming then one should only get the PSP (or the soon NGP) cuz Android and Apple are still far behind compare to it. I always carry my PSP with me, either in my bag or my winter jacket. Got over 50 different full games on it, the way they are meant to be played, not emulated.

I admit I am not highly knowledgeble when it comes to droids, but I have still yet to see a useful app that i cannot have. The "high-quality"ness of it is of little significance to me if the end result is the same. I have over 200 devel/testing apps installed and none have ever broken my device past the point of no repair.
