Sure one could argue that Android needs the fixes, but I don't think that's all that different from the position with Maemo/N900. Nor indeed the iPhone
My point was that your statement seemed like the recent Android updates were for user/OS "enhancement", when in fact, they were more for "problem resolution", for a known problematic product, before its release. I'll take an email client that actually gets email when its supposed to over "animated wall papers" any time. The Droid had/has more issues out of the box than the 900, and Google/Motorola aren't doing anything above and beyond what Nokia are doing, nor any faster.

As for all those "thousands of Android/iPhone apps", the vast majority are not coming from Google nor Apple respectively...they are coming from the community and 3rd party vendors.

Nokia is not doing anything different.
