Just saying that the market leader does it all vice versa... and is successful with that design.
I do not say, that the WebOS devices were badly designed, I just think they appeal to a different (albeit seemingly smaller) group of people...
I now have tablets for webOS/android and IOS, I did think android was worst due to crazy permissions, after using IOS tho, I now consider it worse as it is filled with the same stuff only it never tells you, at least android does.
ios stuff looks pretty but as a massive geek of various types, I find ios lacks heaps of stuff I want esp emulation, the homebrew/cydia is pretty poor as well, had "patches" nullify others, cost a fortune for basic stuff we get on preware, at least most preware devs give for free and suggest donations if you like it, a better approach imho.
I don't think webOS phones are inferior I just think its because webOS isn't as visually flashy/showoff for kiddies, their not gonna care about their OS being made around c/asm/web tech.
so I think we can't judge the phones themselves and their popularity on the os they run, as they are all fundamentally different.
and I still think dodgey apps sucking our personal info in secret will be preferred for what they give/provide whoever gets/sells/uses our info than other OS's that don't, I simply don't trust ios, android I have a choice, and webOS I simply don't know what occurs tbh.
