The NY Times reported today that Steve Jobs is skeptical of the new Google smartphone. His exact words?
“Having created a phone, it’s a lot harder than it looks,” he said. “We’ll see how good their software is and we’ll see how consumers like it and how quickly it is adopted.” In seeking not to get locked out of the mobile phone world, “I actually think Google has achieved their goal without Android, and I now think Android hurts them more than it helps them. It’s just going to divide them and people who want to be their partners.”
Google is working on an open-souce smartphone to compete with Apple's iPhone. It will be one of many other competitors and it will be interesting to see how it is received by consumers. One of the biggest factors will be if they can find a way to competitively price their phone for the consumer.
