I don't read Don Reisinger as a general rule.  I used to but his pieces just became more and more thoughtless.  I got to the point where I simply found them agitating.  A good example of that is this quote from his post entitled "Why iPhone developers should defect to Android"

But the main problem with developing for Android is that the hardware isn't uniform. Some Android-based phones will sport touch-screens, while others will not. That makes developing applications far more difficult, considering the possibility of dealing with a wide array of hardware. But then again, who cares? Rejected iPhone app developers can still create touch-screen Android apps and for those that don't have a touch-screen Android phone, well, they're out of luck.

But perhaps the most compelling reason why developers should defect to Android is because it will finally wake up Steve Jobs and company. Right now, I don't know why Apple should even care about all these developers crying about their beloved apps. The way I see it, they need Apple; Apple doesn't need them.

But if they defect to Android and the Android market becomes a real powerhouse, the whole game will change. Suddenly, Apple will need to take notice and realize the error of its ways.

Look, I haven't really commented on the new Android phone and there's a good reason for that.  It's irrelevant. 

Sure tech pundits will talk about it ad nauseam but the reality is this: The smallest cell phone network in the U.S. is releasing a phone built by a generic phone manufacturer that costs only $20 less than an iPhone and which is, according to every review so far, inferior to the iPhone. 

Looking realistically, I honestly don't understand how anyone can think this will be relevant in the broad market.

Sure you'll hear a lot of people say "but it's open and the iPhone's not" but to that I say "who cares?"  People don't buy a phone because it's an open platform.  In fact, people don't buy a phone based on available applications period.  They buy a phone for how good a phone it is (and more and more how good the built in applications are). 

Which is the biggest point: Cell. Phone platforms live and die on actual phone sales not available applications.

So even suggesting Developers should target Android over the iPhone right now is irresponsible.  It assumes that the number of developers moving over is somehow relevant and its simply not. 

Beyond that you're suggesting developers target a market of maybe, MAYBE a million Android phones vs 14 million iPhones plus who knows how many iPod Touchs (those are estimates through the year 2008).  It's foolishness.
