Motorola obviously cares enough to go in and smooth out the user experience, so good on them.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[cj]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 21st 2010 6:50PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Motorola bringing SHOP4APPS app store 2CHINA, adding workaround for Google spat]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/21/motorola-bringing-shop4apps-app-store-2china-adds-workaround-fo/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/21/motorola-bringing-shop4apps-app-store-2china-adds-workaround-fo/</guid><description><![CDATA[Wow, Motorola!

Probably like there's no YouTube either.<br><br>As for those castigating Motorola, frankly, it was Google's moral stance that put them in a predicament.  They're trying to save their freakin' company and Google pulled the rug out from underneath THEM.  They've already launched two Android phones in China and were launching another this week which Google PULLED along with a Samsung Android.<br><br>Hey, I'm with Google on the moral stance, but when you own a company on the brink and your second major market gets pulled out from underneath you, one for which you've already allocated dollars and production to,  by your partner...well, good for them for having a fall back plan.  A Droid type Android is too connected to Google not to matter.  That's some major de-linkage that has to occur to even make it sale-able in a country without Google.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[SharonW]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 22nd 2010 12:57AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
