We are norwegians, not norwegiens

People so peaceful our police don't carry guns, and if you kill someone you get free education. And that is not a joke.

The opensource model

You made a slight mistake, its not an open source model. That existed for a long time.

It is the community based open source model.

I don't think I can recall such anticipation since the release of the camera API for the N900. Nokia really got us going with the lead up to that one...

Ever the fool, I remain hopeful and excited for Tusday.

In most countries you can get free education without killing anyone.

Google uses open source / free software as well closed source technologies for business, but the difference lies in the general attitude. Google can be rightfully described as open source friendly company, while MS and Apple as open source hostile (even though Apple contributed to some open source projects). And Google's attitude to patent issues in regards to open source software is also noticeable (take Hadoop and etc.).

In practice Google also released way more technologies as open source, than MS and Apple together. Google's backing of WebM vs backing of H.264 by MS and Apple is a good example. It doesn't mean that Google is purely open source oriented, but the difference is still apparent.

Not wrong (especially relative to Redmond and Cupertino), but note that Google don't release source code to all project participants at the same time (which breaks the model a bit IMO).

Err... what? Just get a Blackberry Storm (ha ha) from eBay or something. Am I missing something here?
