Google VP Rips Into Apple [Video]

Google VP of Engineering, Vic Gundotra, ripped into Apple during his Android keynote at the Google I/O conference in San Francisco.

According to TechCrunch he extols the virtues of an open platform and contrasts it with a “Draconian future, a future where one man, one company, one device, one carrier would be our only choice.” Then he shows a poster of 1984, with the title, “Not The Future We Want.” The reference is to Apple and the iPhone. Gundotra uses Apple’s own iconic 1984 imagery against it to great effect right at about 3 minutes into the video clip.
