so today it's HTML5. maybe next year too. but what comes then ? by the time it would be a "solid and dependable" platform it would be way too boring to use as a differentiator, so they have to pick something else. and all the herd will follow.

next year too? you're dreaming. I'm surprised when it suvives next month

what the world needs isn't a new smartphone OS. all it needs are plenty of naive fanboys. and of these, it seems to have in abundance :)
<DocScrutinizer>
indeed

"naive" as in "they still reach for a piece of soap a big corp drops"
