Too much bad vibes in handling the day-to-day business when you are literally everybody's hope. Other then the Android OS, what is on? The OpenSocial OS. . . Merging anyone? What else could they do on mobile? Network (antennas) and terminal (devices): they can do #1 better then anyone, but they need a license, and I don't think they spare any effort to get it (in the USA); #2: Chinese do it better, cheaper; plus, their “buy it cheap and poor quality, disconnect the 20% dysfunctional” approach would be great for cell phones — but need time to implement: address books & call logs have to be in the clouds, not the safest solution. I do believe that what appears a small opening step will prove very empowering for emerging mobile operators: no need to be big & old to have great services. Although, like Facebook's News feed, it doesn't really make sense at first.
