I woke up today at 05:30 to a little under 1000 unread items in Google Reader. Half way through that list I just couldn’t take it anymore, people need to stop making assumptions and conclusions about Android.

The SDK is not out yet. You have not seen the OS. I have not seen the OS. Android is not a threat because no one has yet to see it. Android is not the second coming of Jesus because no one has yet to see it.

How is an entire industry commenting on something they haven’t seen?

Seriously guys. Shut up.

I invite you to continue the conversation on November 12th when the SDK is released.

    Well said Stefan!

    Let’s hope this gets Apple to open up their SDK in February as much as possible too.

    Well put. I’d take some more honest facts even before hoping to see the SDK.

    Lol stefan, welcome to the internets….no….welcome to the world!! Cant let it get to you, it happens with all hyped up or highly anticipated things before release and it wont stop.

    Personally i welcome our new Android overlords. “All your base are belong to us” you’re damn right sir.
