It's NOT always all about the iPhone!
What I like about your article:
- it gives us a lot of insights about the Bada APIs and the maturity/limitations of the platform
- you provide a good set of arguments for the need of more innovative APIs
Thanks much for these parts!
What is dislike about your article:
- You write: "But will Bada really challenge Apple and the iPhone?" I am really getting tired of these statements. Why does everyone assume that every mobile company in the world wants to challenge Apple? Yes, Samsung and Apple both produce mobile phones, but yet they address totally different markets! 90% of Samsung's 200m devices aren't smart phones. Bada certainly is NOT about trying to become the better iPhone, it is about providing an open application platform to feature phones.
- I find your article title pretty unfair and just attention catching. It's a platform in the very early stage and sure not everything is perfect yet. This was the case first with any other open platform...
