Shame there aren't any phones to actually run the code that's  
developed...

Apple has a large install base of 1.4 million+ and don't forget that  
iPhones have teh sexy. Seriously, I don't think good SDKs sell  
handsets. I do understand your grievances about Apple, but they have a  
good brand, tight UI and great industrial design, I think that's all  
they need in this space.

But to bring this back to a kind of WordPress oriented discussion. I  
wouldn't spend any time on a WPhone style Android application until  
there is a market for them beyond a few developers inside of Google. I  
don't think this is a no-brainer direction for developers like the  
iPhone was.

Oh... congratulations on winning the contest by the way. Do you plan  
to combine efforts with the other entrants to make a super-dooper  
plugin?

Sam
