The iphone has so jumped out in front with simple ease of use and real internet. Good luck google and I love you guys but this is an odd direction for a SE to take.
The App Store gives it a boost, but the iPhone still can't do lots of things that most Palm, Blackberry or Windows Mobile phones can do. The only real advantage the iPhone has is the GUI. Most of the Apps you're seeing on the iPhone now are just clones of existing apps from the other systems.

It's also not just Google putting this system together. It's major cellphone manufacturers, cell service providers and telecom companies. So it's not really a SE company putting out a cell phone.
