It's already massively outselling the iPhone. Do we even need to speculate that it's going to be an important platform for a long time?

Nokia dumbphones massively outsell iPhones too, but as far as developers are concerned, the only real game in town is iPhone development. Android apps don't make nearly as much money for us mobile developers, and device sales aren't going to solve that problem alone.

So yeah, speculation is warranted. I'm deeply embroiled in the market, and I think the jury is out.

Do they also have a positive derivative?
