Android Fragmentation: It's Complicated...

[kapolani]

the capability isn't there.

jailbreaking the phone does not provide integration where integration does not exist.

when you jailbreak, you can install apps that Jobs doesn't allow, but it still doesn't allow you to circumvent the core functionality of the o/s

You have no clue what you're talking about.

Jailbreakers write apps all the time that hook into the OS.

I.E. apps that brought multi-tasking to the iPhone first.

Honestly, your making yourself look foolish. You havent a clue of 2.2+ and the Android Market or the changes implemented over the past year. PLEASE stop making it out like you know what your saying.

Thanks Hawaii

I admit I haven't kept up, but I could have sworn I've read articles from Gizmodo, Engadget etc stating these exact things.

Honestly don't feel like taking the time to find these articles.

anybody that needs a pager function would understand it

why carry two devices around when one device can do both functions.

Text messaging can serve the same purpose as a pager. You can text a number. It's not rocket science.

Why carry a pager?

I'm an application developer, and have written apps for the iphone, and android devices.

it's the notification that is limiting.

you don't want every text message you receive to operate like a pager.

haivng a different ring type based on contacts isn't going to handle it either
