I agree, he is just trying to make waves and get his name out there.
Android isn't going anywhere, and this "fragmentation problem" he talks about is not really a problem. iOS also has a whole lot of fragmentation, possibly more than Android, but as long as the unit can still provide for the user, it isn't a problem. I'm sure there are a lot of people that would like to be upgraded to a newer version of Android (some are up in arms about it,) but there are a lot that are happy with whatever version they are on. Froyo was really where I feel Android graduated from a fragmentation issue and any device that is running Froyo or newer is going to provide an excellent user experience. Yes, sometimes things can get buggy with age, but a quick reflash of the firmware can usually take care of that. I have a tablet that until a few months ago was operating Froyo. I didn't really notice much of a difference when I loaded Gingerbread on it. Then there are the developers that build ROMs and provide the newest version of android to old devices.
Also, I think he is ENTIRELY off base thinking the new Google tablet will be called "Google Play tablet" I may be eating crow in a few months, but that name is flat out stupid.
