I could agree with you on the cloud-based stuff in those terms as well...but that's because I don't trust a "cloud" to provide seamless 24/7 coverage everywhere I'd want to use my device. Without local storage and local apps, it's out for me - until we get our world-wide-net with suitable privacy policies enforced in a way I trust.

I think one thing you're missing about Android - the speed of development that is possible is much higher than Apple, simply because of it's more open nature. The incentives, too, for those wanting to sell apps for it are even larger, because, as we've discussed with authors - they can sell DIRECT and avoid agency fees.
