Case in point: Sharp, known more for their TVs in the US of A, recently said this about Android:
"We select the OS in accordance with the telecommunications carriers' opinions, and we have no intention of setting any OS as standard. Google's Android is one of the options."
So I guess a lot of smartphone makers are smartening up and keeping options open with the open-source OS. Do you think Sharp will get into the Android game? Can they even get a bigger footprint in North America?
