For me, Android competitive advantage over iOS boils down to 3 elements, all related to UI customization:

2. Replacement of nav buttons with gestures (via GMD)
3. Custom icon grid (via Nova)

The biggest problem of being 3 days in bed with high fever is hallucinations. Sometimes you don’t know what’s real and what’s not.

For example, the other day I swear I thought we sent a car into space.

Another thing that I said multiple times: it takes an average of 9 months between the time I say something controversial and the time people come to the same conclusion. I can’t tell if it’s just a striking coincidence or my typical claims require that much gestation in general.
