I promised myself I wouldn’t get drawn into this nonsense. The ridiculous “my mobile operating system is better than your operating system” back-and-forth that seems to comprise 80-85% of TechCrunch’s journalistic output (and – just before you get too smart-assy about it – a similar percentage of comments and page impressions).
There are, after all, actual things happening in the world. There’s been a landslide in China. North and South Korea are heading towards all-out warfare. Hell, a man who makes printers may or may not have had sex with someone!
But all those stories will have to wait. Because today I made a momentous decision, and a quick glance at my contract of employment tells me that I’m legally obliged to share it with you.
I’m going to buy a Blackberry.
Why? Because its operating system is better than your phone’s operating system.
