In a bit of a surprise, at least to me, the reports are that the Moto/Google deal will be approved by both the EU and US with no strings attached as early as next week.

Here's something I've never noticed before. The purchase also has to be approved by China, Taiwan and Isreal. Perhaps there's subsidiary companies in those countries.

If they can do it in their free time a large billion dollar corporation can.

Now I'm sure, and I've said before (maybe not here) that Google can do a lot more to appease their customers' customers but to solely blame them is ridiculous.

Ah yes, that's what every Android user wants! To have to rely on hacks and rooting devices to gain full use or improved performance of their devices. This is why Android is such a joke except with techtards, or the clueless consumers who don't' realize that most of the Android devices for sale are obsolete the minute they walk out the door.

So yes, it was possible...also the cost of paying, say, 40 engineers or developers, or whoever would be in charge of this say, 80k a year is only 3.2 million...that 3.2 million could've saved them a LOT of money assuming better updates and software reliability = more/returning customers.

Nonsense. Suggest you read Motorola's own blog post from last year regarding the complexity of the process, especially incorporating testing and approval with each and every carrier. Life is sooooo simple when you don't have to deal with the facts.

Ah, I love the smell of dirty laundry in public first thing in the morning...

I know, it's only Feb. and I'm on track to break my New Year's resolution of being less anti-Android/Google/etc.

*sigh*

It was probably easier to say I was going to quit chocolate or something.

That is why Apple is the leader in this industry. They have it both ways. They control the operating system and they control the hardware.

Something tells me no matter what I say you're going to disagree so I see no point in actually responding in full. but I will.

So let me stroke your ego. "Android sucks, FreeRange is God, blah blah blah,"

peace.

Also your response has nothing to do with what I said which can be summed up as "BS Moto, Google may be part of the problem but you can do better as evidenced by a small team of freetime devs."

But you refuse to accept that the problem lies in anything other than Android itself.

Nothing you said negates what I said.
