		<description><![CDATA[As illustrated in my previous post, companies adopting a closed ecosystem (eg.

		<description><![CDATA[Android&#8217;s dominance over Apple is effectively a fait accompli (see latest Neilsen data).  A post-mortem, so to speak, reveals that Apple never had a chance. Although a technical and design innovator, the mighty Apple cannot withstand the ongoing onslaught from the Android Horde.  It&#8217;s demise as the leading platform can be attributed to 3 factors: [...]]]></description>
