Google's Rubin: Android 'a revolution' | Digital Media - CNET News

Google's Rubin: Android 'a revolution' | Digital Media - CNET News

There's probably like a royal flush of openness, where you can lay your cards on the table and say (pointing) "open, open, open, open, open," it's the guy with the most open that's going to win.

I think we're that. I think that we have an open ecosystem, we have an open-source platform, we chose the right license, there are no viral aspects, it's absolutely 100 percent free, it's complete, it's everything you need to build a phone. When you add all that stuff up, all those ingredients, potentially--I think the jury's still out--we can make a really successful product.

The Googlies clearly get it. Bye Bye MSFT, Symbian, all the other crappy proprietary phone software that lets you do very little, badly. Done. History.
