Great podcast, as always.
Why do we keep hearing about iPhone unlocking?
Will you be able to unlock your Verizon Droid phones in a couple of years? If you can, will you be able to use them on another network?
If you could unlock your iPhone, you could use it on T-Mo, but not 3G. If you have a T-Mo phone and unlock it, you wouldn’t be able to use ATT 3G.
Unlocking a phone may be important in Europe, or even Canada, but it seems like it is a made-up concern here in the US.
And I say that as someone who had an unlocked Nokia E61 and an unlocked Nokia E71. I could go to Europe and buy a SIM and put in my phone and get full capabilities. But, I couldn’t go to Verizon, or Sprint, or US Cellular, or get full use on T-Mo.
So, if you want to call out Apple and AT&T, then call out the others as well.

I’m hearing a lot of praise for Android devices from you guys and I’m wondering if you could talk about the camera quality. My last phone purchase was a Nokia, which I specifically chose for the Carl Zeiss optics. Would you say that the Android devices coming out now rival or surpass the camera quality that Nokia is known for? I know they are available with 12MP cameras, but that says nothing about the color balance, the contrast, etc. Thanks,
