While most people seem to be rooting for Android to make its debut and bridge the gap between phones and netbooks, apparently there are a few who, for varied reasons, think Android ought stay away from netbooks and stick to what it knows best: smartphones.

They maybe good at making cheap reliable hardware, BUT they SUCK AT SOFTWARE!
With some OEM you wouldn't get a iPhoneOS 3.0 for old products, because they don't f*cking care once the thing has shipped. That is something they fundamentally don't get, that you have you support your platform. Just look at Xandros, Linpus etc.
So Google would have to demand from vendors that they ship new versions of Android for old devices. They can do it with the telecoms and OHA members, but I am skeptic that some small chinese OEM can be forced to ship a new versions. They just don't care.
