While the article discusses the concept that it may be more about handsets becoming obsolete at a dramatic pace rather than the OS fragmenting, it also begins by noting that there are currently five different versions of Android on the market, which implies there is a notable degree of fragmentation. Regardless of it being fragmentation or handsets becoming obsolete to new feature sets in a terribly short period of time, I believe this development cycle could turn casual consumers away and hurt Android's chances for long-term mainstream success."

OMG!!! You're 'scared'!!!
What a fucking idiot. You won't be missed dipshit.
100,000 phones a day now for Android - 36 million phones a year.
Marketshare doubling every quarter.
2nd place in marketshare already.
50,000 apps already written for the platform.
Every major cellphone maker standardizing on the platform.
But oh noes!!! some fucking iPhone developer is spewing bullshit about his iPhone Fart App being developed on Android.

Hey troll.
It's refreshing to see someone announce their intentions up front...

This is an *apple* developer we're talking about here. You must only help them find ways of *reducing* testing complexity. For example, so that you only have to test with one mouse button.
