Android ready for Primetime?

I recently read the title headline in a published article; "Android not ready for primetime". At first I was put back; I love the phone and the software. But like most of Google's products such as gmail, earth... they are in a semi perminant status of "Beta". They do this so users do not complain to much while they work our their business model. But a beta Operating System that has customer purchasing phones and developer producing apps is a bit of a problem. When apps don't work, most of the time the user blames the developer. Though this is not alway true, Microsoft is blamed constantly about problem that they had no part in. That is, badly designed or untested apps that cause MS machines to behave poorly.

The Android OS is a great system with a lot of potental if handled correctly. My hopes are high that once companies such as Motorola get involved the OS will come out of beta and become production quality. If not it will fall by the wayside like so many "science projects".
