Paul Thurrott: Droid ‘Spells Doom for iPhone’

Paul Thurrott:

Aside from the abysmal online store experiences, however, Android and the DROID X are first rate. And looking ahead, I’ll be comparing this system to the upcoming first generation Windows Phone 7 devices, and to Apple’s latest iPhone, to see where these systems fall. For now, however, Android and the DROID X are, warts and all, already neck and neck with the iPhone 4. It’s scary to think how one-sided this would be if Google just put a handful of UI experts on the marketplace. Game over, Apple. Game over.

Sure, that’s the ticket. Just add a couple of “UI experts” to the Android Market team.
