Re: Isn't he cute?
"The consumer who defines the success of a platform or not doesn't give a shit about free. They want music, videos and games."
They'll get those because the browser and media player are the two bits of FOSS that get the most lurve from developers.
What they will also get is no annoying vendor-enhanced user experience, which I seem to recall provokes a "how do I switch this crap off and make it like my old phone" response from pretty much every end-user when they buy a new phone.
They'll also get security patches for more than six months on the device that they now use for online banking and offline payments. Children may not care about that, and I'll grant that they make the most noise on the interwebs, but anyone old enough to actually earn their own money might be interested in not losing it.
