@daringfireball I'm not a likely buyer, but what I would like is more competition and more consumer choice.

Two flavors are not enough.

@buckfiftyseven @daringfireball what’s it going to run, a proprietary OS? We already have a dual mobile phone economy. Slapping a brand mark on top isn’t changing anything. The apps make the phone. An edge to Apple for the hardware + OS experience.
