Disappointing post. I was expecting a graph of the dozens (or more) versions of "Android" running around on devices that are being sold today.
I'm tired of seeing "Android" cited as a single OS in all kinds of statistics, when in fact it's a pile of proprietarily hacked OSes with a common heritage.
This is a failure of Google to implement a forward-thinking license.
"Fragmentation allows users to take their pick from thousands of devices."
This person doesn't understand WTF fragmentation is.
Interesting. Thanks.
MPlayer lacks a playlist though, which is annoying.
VLC's recent UI changes have been a step backward (specifically making it impossible to see the playlist and the video at the same time), but at least you can queue things up to play.
Let's hope so.
Except, from what I can tell, there's no way to have it alert you when applications try to call out. So you have to know in advance which applications you want to block, and specify them manually.
Also, if the app you want to block calls out during installation, it's too late.
