The diversity of choices for Android hardware is exactly its strengh, it’s the reason why it is becoming so popular so fast and that is why I am a huge fanboy of Android and not so much of apple.

I don’t support apple’s anti-competitive ways to use ARM (itunes, walled gardens, closed OS and features, non-compete clauses all over the platform etc).

Now, why are people surprised that Android is “selling” more? If it’s on more devices, it will naturally have a larger install base. I have come across people that aren’t even aware that Android is the OS, they just think it’s another company name at the start up! Another point, it seems that you don’t care for Apple, why is this? All of the iOS products use an ARM CPU!
