I am in the process of collecting ideas from the community on one "simple" question:
What are the *business reasons* why a device manufacturer should allow replacement firmware and/or root access by default on devices? The full post, along with some existing feedback, can be found here: http://www.androidguys.com/2010/03/03/reasons-root If you would like to provide input and would prefer to reply to this message rather than comment on the AndroidGuys post itself, cool! Here is what I am looking for (again, more details on that post): -- I want business and economic arguments, not moral or ethical ones, since we're long on the moral/ethical reasons and short on the business ones -- Act like professionals -- That being said, both carrots and sticks are valid suggestions -- Do not overestimate the size of the current modding community I will be rolling up the ideas into a follow-up post, and I hope to put these ideas to good use in the weeks and months to come.
