So it looks like we're on the brink of another Android 2.x release where you 
can get hardware running it before the source code to build it. To me this 
raises some questions;

- Are we now in the position where a select few companies get the advantage of 
access to pre-relase versions of (and SDKs for) new major releases, thus 
leaving most developers supporting hardware and an Android version they can't 
test for prior to consumers buying it?

- Have Google bowed to OEMs by not making details of major Android releases 
available prior to hardware releases?

- Has Android become more "throw it over the fence when we're done" than 
"everyone can contribute" open source?

What do people think?

Al.
