I don't want to start a carrier war discussion, but if it's true that T-Mobile has a 6 month exclusive on it, it won't help much. T-Mobile just isn't a big enough player and there isn't enough hype to get people to port over to them.

So if the 6 month exclusive is true, don't expect to see many people carrying one. The Dream is a huge phone and the OS is geared to those less geeky than than OpenMoko but geekier than most iPhone users.

I'm guessing the Android phones will grow like Windows Mobile did. Slow at first and grow as it matures. Apple blew off the whole corporate market by not having Exchange integration. Will Google make the same mistake? I'm guessing YES at first since there has been no announcement from Microsoft.

[NOTE: This is all regarding the Dream in the U.S.]
