David - I think you should re-word this to be more Android-ish. I am not an iPhone fanboy, but what Google is trying to do is be the Microsoft Windows of the PC world. They provide the software OS for a hardware spec. I think you have a good prediction idea, but it might be a bit better with a slight change.


Dave, what would you suggest?


Google's Android beats sales of the iPhone

Living up to the hype, Google's Android PhoneOS beats sales of the iPhone in 2008.

Just realize of course that they all pale in comparison to Nokia. Even RIM is a better seller, as is MSFT Mobile. But I do like this challenge.


I'd be happy to push this prediction if it were reworded to indicate that there may be many variations of the 'google-phone', and that the prediction is pitting Google's mobile strategy against Apple's. Also if the #1 selling gadget clause is important, i would define it a little more clearly and submit it as a separate prediction. I do like the apple mobile platform vs google mobile platform prediction though, nice one David, I hope it comes up.
