Makes me want to make a ranking system,
perhaps I should get off my lazy chair and start a new thread.
(surely someone else has done exactly this somewhere else
that I simply have not seen yet...?)

Please feel free to expand revise copy paste or whatever:


Phone OS rated = security * flexibility)
on scales of 0.0 through to +1.0

Maemo5 (= 0.9 * 0.8)

UbuntuTouch (= 0.7 * 0.5)

Apple (= 0.6 * 0.3)

Android (= 0.4 * 0.6)

Tizen (= 0.2 * 0.1)

Somewhere there should be supporting evidence,
but only if this ends up in a proper thread of its own...
