There's a huge difference between 3 application stores installed as default on a device, and the possibility to access more than a single application store.
Having a single application store installed as default is much more user-friendly. The problem with the AppStore is that Apple has complete control over the distribution of applications. Android phones should be shipped to the consumer with a single application store (based on the telco, the phone manufacturer, whatever...), and let the user install additionnal stores if they'd like to have more choice.
