T-Mobile USA CTO Cole Brodman shed some more light on T-Mobile's affection for all things Android at yesterday's GigaOM Mobilize conference in San Francisco. Brodman said that Android was the first operating system that truly delivered on the concept of an open platform for the wireless industry. He said that carriers needed to "evolve" toward a more open, Web-based environment. However, he also acknowledged some of the limitations of Android, most notably getting users to find applications easily in the Android Market. "We haven't yet cracked the code of discovery," he said. Article

Don't you think Title of this article is misleading or wrong ? "App Store" is owned by Apple and Cole is not talking about App Store faluts but he is acknowledging issues with Android Market place.

Hello! Thanks for your comment. You're right that Cole is not talking about Apple's App Store but rather the Android Marketplace. The headline of this article is referring to the general idea of an "app store" for Android devices, the proper name of which is Android Marketplace. --Mike Dano, managing editor
