I agree that Google can be accused of over-selling the openness of Android, and that this explains some of the criticism of the limitations of the openness. However, just as someone can overstate something, someone can just as easily over-compensate.

Android is by far the most "open" phone OS out there at the moment on a usable phone (sorry Openmoko). By all means lets look for improvements or even alternatives, but I appreciate it for the step forward that it is.
