During the last earnings call, Apple has showed some pretty impressive numbers on the sales of both the iPad and the iPhone. Yet, Steve made some remarks that several competitors didn’t like at all.
For instance, Steve noted that Eric Schmids’s discussion on the openness of the Android platform versus the closed nature of iOS is not the right one. Instead, the question should be who is more fragmented. In fact, according to Steve Jobs, the developer of TweetDeck was complaining about the hundreds of different versions they had to develop for Android. The developers behind TweetDeck instantly replied that development on Android wasn’t that hard at all.
“Did we at any point say it was a nightmare developing on Android? Errr nope, no we didn’t. It wasn’t.” tweeted Lian Dodsworth of TweetDeck.
“the definition of open: “mkdir android ; cd android ; repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git ; repo sync ; make”” tweeted Andy Rubin from Google
Steve also compared RIM’s and Apple’s sales numbers to state that Apple outsold RIM in the last reported quarter. RIM’s Jim Balsille responded by saying that RIM’s last quarter didn’t include September while Apple’s did. In September, smartphone sales are traditionally up and that could make up for the 2 million unit difference (Apple reported 14.1 million vs. 12.1 million at RIM).
Jim also took a shot at Steve’s statement that 7” tablets make no sense as people’s fingers would be too big. According to Jim, 7” tablets make perfect sense (hence, RIM releases the PlayBook) and by including Flash 10.1 support, RIM knows their clients will like it as they will be able to receive the full web experience.
