I brought it up when I was asked what phone I had. My first post in the thread was simply, why limit to just those two. I didn't mention any manufacturer, OS, carrier, model, etc.

>Fragmentation is fragmentation. The phone market may be newer, but there's plenty of experience with fragmentation in the PC. Basically it's a big headache for MS and can be for users as well if something breaks- e.g. one of the updates messed up the video drivers on my PC last year. IMHO people only tolerate updates because of the security risk.

>Why are people determined that it's different on the phone? It's a very clever job that the blogger did documenting Android fragmentation, but unless people believe there was a simultaneous lapse in competence by the most successful phone manufacturers on the planet, perhaps there's more to the story. I've proposed one explanation that seems to match the facts, that's all.
