Yes its about the Operating system )android, symbian) but when the whole industry get together to try an counter Google I think you will see some interesting things. My pick is that the whole OS for mobile phones becomes totally irrelevant and the platform is able to run any OS layer application (ala RCS client) on any phone. That puts the game back into the hands of the Telcos, their partners and other content players. google has a part to play but they cant control the game like they are trying. nice try but not quick engough I say. Something Google doesnt have is the core telco platform too. And thats where RCS clients teamed with an increasing number of 3GPP based Telco voip IMS based platforms, the telcos can maintain semi control of the infrastructure layer. Paul, happy to discuss some time. - Ben Thu, 26 Jun 2008 13:35:56 +0100
