In an interview with Laptop Magazine, Steve Andler, vice president of marketing for Networks in Motion (makers of VZ Navigator and Gokivo for iPhone), says that Google has burned GPS software makers by rolling their features into software updates.
"...Google is attacking the most profitable part of the mobile software development community. Clearly, they can call Android an open platform, but we all know that that’s a bunch of hooey. They completely control and own it. While people can make changes on top of it, the reality is what’s going to be in Android 3.0 and 4.0 is totally and completely controlled by the warchest at Google."
