Android alone applicable advantage for now

"Android has a abundant abate alternative of apps than iOS (Android apps 70.000 vs. iOS apps 250.000)"
As a quick seek and comes aback with the Android app bazaar extensive at atomic 90,000 with predications of 100,000 in July (2 months ago). I don't apperceive the absolute number, but a actuality is that you pulled castigation from boilerplate recent.
"Most of the apps are free, so the android app bazaar isn't a acceptable abode for developers" Evidence of the above? I've paid for a fair amount of apps (including games) afterwards application their Late versions because they are acceptable apps.
Envelopers face added hurdles as the android exchange is actual burst in accouterments (esp. awning size) and OS versions used"
As for the affidavit of this, if I get updates for the apps I use the a lot of accepted acumen has been "Update for Android 2.2", and I'm active 1.6. So one adaptation of the App for all Oss, afresh you accept not presented a fact.
"Android allows carriers to attenuate accessories with undeletable applesauce software, something that could apathetic acceptance a part of users if added platforms (like iOS or maybe windows phone) don't accept that disadvantage" Alone in the USA, not accurate in added markets. "Android acceptance in the US will apathetic down the moment the iphone is accessible at all 4 carriers"
This is an assessment not a fact. Afresh this hasn't happened in added markets alfresco of the USA, abnormally in UK area the iPhone is accessible on all carriers. "Half of the android handset makers (LG, Motorola, Sony) accomplish at a accident or hardly breakeven; alone Samsung and HTC about-face a accumulation from their Smartphone operations"
And the carriers are the same, about one carrier has the absolute from Apple in their market, the others by itself will go for the next best competitor. Which looks like Android?
Yes Android apps blot for a developer, any acceptable applications get affected into Google own apps (e.g. that Radar apps functionality got cloned into Google’s); meanwhile the bazaar is ashore with chargeless sub brand copies. No befalling to accomplish money, but a lot of absurd humans block gold mines. Obviously that's not acceptable for app developers. But for now it’s the bearings as it is.
So IMHO, Nokia charge to breeding and recruit the best third affair developers, they charge to advice them ability a added audience, they charge to body a amount array of the best apps, and they charge to action that array to carriers. Because it's not the 100k apps that advertise the phone, it's the array that comes in the box.
And Google, for all the crappies of its interfaces, has the accepted best bundle. But it doesn't beggarly that it will accept that in a few years’ time.
