Time for Android to radically change the UI

Right or wrong the jury’s finding points out that in many ways Android is similar in design to iOS. I like both Android and iOS but if I’m honest I must admit that using my Android phone is similar to using my iPhone. The same is true of my Nexus 7 tablet, using it is similar to using my iPad.

That is the basic problem confronting Google with Android. It is similar in looks and function to iOS, a look that now has legal precedent to belong to Apple. That similarity is real to anyone who is honest enough to admit it.
