On yesterday’s gain discussion call with analysts, Apple CEO Steve Jobs went on a right away well-publicized diatribe about the contest , spending a satisfactory amount of time perplexing to execute Android as a complex, untidy network that has so many not similar versions that it’s a calamity for app developers. To expostulate home his point, he used the e.g. of TweetDeck, the renouned Twitter app.
Jobs said:
Twitter client, Twitter Deck, not long ago launched their app for Android. They reported that they had to say with more than 100 not similar versions of Android program on 244 not similar handsets. The multi-part hardware and program iterations present developers with a daunting challenge. Many Android apps work usually on choosen Android handsets running choosen Android versions. And this is for handsets that have been shipped reduction than 12 months ago. Compare this with iPhone, where there are two versions of the software, the stream and the many new prototype to assessment against.
That sounds similar to a nightmare, huh? But may be it wasn’t. Early this morning, TweetDeck owner Iain Dodsworth shot off a rapid twitter that read:
