I don't use any apple products but I get tired of Google touting how much better 4.0 is when most people are locked into phones running 2.2 or 2.3 for years into the future.
Way to take what started as a reasonable post and trash it with a needless, baseless insult.
The post spends pages on how hardware acceleration in android is just fine, but it completely ignores the actual problem. This is like a man in court for a DUI who bases his whole defense around the fact that he has a legitimate driver's license.
Going from Heinlein's razor, I assume that google does not know the cause of the problem. The alternative is that google is deliberately trying to mislead us by ensconcing the clunkiness issue within the hardware acceleration issue in the belief that by disproving the software acceleration claims they can nullify the elephant in the room: poor user interface performance.
