      So, don’t purchase a Blackberry. Your world won’t be altered by it and those that want a Blackberry will be happy.

      I like how you have reduced your trolling to 1-3 words per android article.

        Quantity does not always equal quantity, as Android has proven. Efficiency is undervalued. Thank you for noticing.

        oops – q
        uantity does not always equal “quality”. See what can happen?

        I see now. Your pea-sized brain and tenuous grasp of English grammar can’t say more than 3 words without fu¢king up.
        I will no longer rag on you, given your condition.

        My brain is MASSIVE and much larger than yours. And my grasp of the English language is perhaps unparalleled in BGR history. I will give you credit for your creative ways of writing fu$king and other similar words. That clearly shows at least a 7th grade level of intelligence. Well done Walt, well done.

        That was good. You did well.

        I am really proud of you!

    Dear #GOOGLE, how about you pause and spend some time on fixing the Management on the Android Platform and make it enterprise friendly?

    How many Honeycomb devices activated? Oh wait, that would tarnish the event, since we all know the number is embarrassingly small.

    Google is Skynet!

    First Android phones and tablets, now Android at (stupid at sign feature won’t let me use at sign) Home, mixed with location tracking and file management of your personal tastes, as well as your email!

    Google totally knows everything about me.

    Interesting, 100 million activations and 4.5 billion apps installed. That’s an average of 45 apps per activation. Seems a tad high, especially since many users don’t install any apps.

      Sorry 60 million ipod touches as well.

  • ThatGuy

    No doubt, impressive. Just think if Google monetized Android like every other smart phone OS. Instead they monetize by collecting user data and sending its users ads. Kind of like junk mail…

    It’s too bad this event wasn’t after the Galaxy S2 is released worldwide and once the ASUS Transformer ramps up production. I’m sure it will make these numbers look like yesterday’s news.

    Reading all the comments = lots of Fruit lovers afraid of Android…and you should be.

    • Anonymous

      All of you take your little fanboyism a little to seriously. No one should be “afraid” of anything. 

      “Fruit lovers” or not. At the end of the day its just a phone. Not really worth getting worked up about.
