I've run Android since release. Owned an original Droid. I hate this platform and every device independent pixel of its implementation. It has potential though. Potential to grow into something better, something less ugly, and perhaps something borderline usable. I want to help, by criticizing every aspect of it.
Each post is a specific gripe with links to bug reports and user comments if applicable. I might even throw in a screenshot or mockup from time to time.

That's my email. Use it to comment, correct, argue, agree, drop tips, suggest particularly horrid apps, or even show me an example of a really great android app (unlikely).
To update an app on Android you have to open the market app, switch to the list of available updates, click through to the app you want to update, and tap update. The App Store has an easy solution to this repetition: an update all button. Judging by the stars and “me too” comments on Issue 4817 this is a point of friction.
Fixed in 2.2 (FroYo) When this will ship to devices is yet to be seen but the functionality exists.
