Because Nokia's services (server based, even if they're not using "web") are so very open? OviMaps? Calendar? Nokia email? Ovi? How do you figure it's got to be any more open than Android where the apps are increasingly less tied to the OS (as opposed to a broken OS when you try to remove the Nokia closed-minded apps)?
