It will set up an expectation amongst users that every application will work across the range of devices - which is the Apple "everything works with a click" advertising position.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How will they deliver this? Developers will target a single platform (or worse, device) never the whole range (because they can't: you can't even do it with Symbian accross the Series 60/UIQ divide!). The PR will be great and then the PR will be dreadful.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Everyone is going to get frustrated and then grumpy. I can smell another failed venture even from here.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">juliancooling</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 11 Aug 2008 08:01:40 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
