Is not a "phone" (Score 1)

Is an OS. Sure it'll be phones with and w/o GPS, with and w/o touch screen etc. The platform is prepared for all that, it supports accelerometer, compass (here); and any other thing that can appear, is easy to manage from the platform. Nothing to envy to iPhone software, sliders boxes (like combo boxes) already has the behavior of "slide" as the iPhone and it already plays videos and sounds in mp3 (on others) format. Now, what "GPhones" (hate that word) will give you, will vary in function of what hardware builders wishes to include in each phone with Android OS; and about software, whatever you want to develop for the platform using the APIs they give you. Don't you like the "heavyweight" navigator it has built in? ok, get a better one or just do a better one, don't complain.
