All,
Has googles public shine wayned like it's stock price? Seems
that like Chorme, the "Googlephone" isn't selling. A flop? Will dot
mobi the brain child of ICANN questionable wisdom, going to be
adversely impacted due to over marketing by Google? Seems
perhaps so.

of
crowds. The iPhone appears to still be the gold standard and Etan

as the iPhone,

shortcuts
and features' and 'may appeal more to techies who value open-source
products
and don't mind a somewhat steep learning curve.' Part of the reason for
slow
interest may also be that T-Mobile's
