Sascha, you're famous! I saw you live during the webcast. Still don't get the missing traditional audio jack - seems kinda weird given the market they're going after. PS Spoke to Sling - Blackberry and iPhone take precedence, so I wouldn't expect a SlingPlayer in '08 though it's something they will look at.

Will there be a 3rd party app to allow tethering, lift the Draconian bandwidth cap (1GB) or add a 3.5mm headphone jack? *signed, a formerly excited G1 fan*

I never thought I'd see the day - I'm totally rooting for Google on this one; open development and open access to the platform is the way to go, even if there are drawbacks to it. I just can't really condone with how incredibly closed and sandboxed Apple has been with the App Store and the iPhone. Here's hoping Apple opens up over time, and that Android is a catalyst even for that, but I never thought I'd stand against Apple on something like this. :(

Been watching the dev. of Android for a while now, and have to agree, IF 3rd parties can get the led out and address v1.0 problems, all parties involved might be on to something of real value here. As it stands right now, I'll stick with my iPhone, thanks very much. But I also have to agree with alan - Apple, open up the doors just a bit and let a few more devs into the party. Sticking your head in the literal sandbox isn't going to help anyone here.
