Interesting take on why Apple’s approach to controlling the whole iPhone application ecosystem is a better idea than Google’s “free for all” for the Android platform.

Why The iPhone Is Poised to Crush Android:

Apple’s approach to quality control addresses not only the customers interests, but the reputation of the iPhone as well. While it seems rigid and inflexible, particularly in it’s distribution model it does guarantee that Apple will be able to test all of the software on its platform before its release to customers. This does put a great deal of responsibility on Apple to ensure their testing is adequate because any failures due to software they approved would not go over well with iPhone users.
