Andorid and Iphone is definitely going to be a tough battle. With more and more Andorid devices coming out (plus softwares) I think Apple needs to watch out.

@idannyb Well, the point of the article is to say that the there are Android (and even more iPhone OS) elements which are contested. Current generation smartphones enable even greater integration of services ... and thus challenge the current carrier business model which is loosely built around silos. Can the carriers influence the OS development in their favour ? What will that mean to developers which have built apps in these categories ? We will see.

Btw Borqs is also a member of the Symbian Foundation.

Offering something of a rebuttal to the image of a happy marriage between Android + carrier is Symbian executive Lee Williams. He rips into Google's Android during a recent interview with Om Malik - watch the video > http://om.bit.ly/26n8ZZ
