Catfight! Get out your mobile phones and start filming, because two important personalities in the mobile world just got into a catfight. After the presentation of Apple's (once again) stellar quarterly results (what's with the low iPad sales, though?), Apple's CEO Steve Jobs went on a bit of a tangent regarding Android (among other things). Google's Andy Rubin, the father of Android, responded in a pretty fun way via Twitter.

If anyone knows disingenuous, its Jobs. Apple inc, is based on the idea of a disingenuous field, alternatively referred to as a reality distortion field, but ultimately they are isomorphic to each other.
In fact, he's so disingenuous, that he can't help but frame his own comments disingenuously. His comments are not really directed towards the openness of Android, but the whether or not that model is better for consumers.
Its like calling a Jeep's off road capability disingenuous because of its poorer gas mileage when compared to a Prius.
