I hope they hold off webOS vs. Android until after the Feb. 9 announcement. That should take care of the hardware problem they mentioned.

And of course iOS and Android have a bye for the first round. If it weren't for webOS users voting, I'm convinced laptopmag wouldn't get enough traffic to keep their website open. They haven't had an original idea in over a year...

For a mobile OS that is regularly made fun of for having tens, if not dozens, of users, that would be awful. And the number of votes that webOS routinely gets is even more awful - awfully high that is.

But I forgot - each of us votes 100 times to inflate the apparent size of the webOS community while only one in 100 android users will vote because they're too coll for the poll (yeah... that one was BAD, sorry).

<edit> which doesn't change the fact that this sort of poll is boring and played-out one bit. But I suppose there's always someone to whom something that's old to most others is new...

we won the first round without any serious promotion... that shows the world is sooo tired of these stupid votes. Laptopmag must be totally hurting for page views.

Didn't Sprint have one of these polls that webOS ended up winning? We've yet to see anything come from that...
