That's how you read it cause that's what you wanted to hear The study was on females only I believe.
The different versions isnt the problem. The problem is that HTC, Motorola and Samsung all put their own twist on Android (HTC Sense, motoBlur, etc). So when google rolls out a software update, those companies have to then go and update their OS, and that takes time. That's the benefit/problem with open source. Google does want to put a stop to it come 3.0.
But apps are just java programs that run on android, 99% of the time any app will run on any android phone as long as it's v1.5 or later, which I dont think there is an android phone that doesnt have an update for 1.6 or greater.
From a developer's stand point, hardware is the biggest hurdle, more so screen size and resolution, but android has a built in feature that automatically adjusts for screen size and resolution, and you can of course code for it as well and include high, medium and low res images if you want, or just use high and it will scale it down.
Yes, that's the point. You know why it's on 40 phones? Cause it can be, and therefor it will sell more. See how that works?
Your posts are always so informative and a valuable contribution. You don't know shit about phones, so stop posting in phone threads. I don't mind opinions, but you always just come and shit in them with your iphone fanboy crap.
