Thus, Android so far was little more to me than yet-another-J2ME. Some sandbox virtual machine environment where people can write UI apps for. In other words: Nothing that gets me excited at all. I want a openness where I can touch and twist the bootloader, kernel, drivers, system-level software – and among other things, UI applications.

If I want to buy a closed system I would again buy Apple products… not because they are really great but because you get what you paid for ;)
