In effect then, you are saying that HTML5 will serve the
role as the
universal platform (without actually saying
that, because Tizen is built on
it), and I wasn't thinking.
Of course that is the expectation for HTML5.
However, HTML5
is not there yet, and there is a lot of squabbling to be
done
yet to complete the specification. Also, W3C standards
move too slow to keep up
with changing technology. Tizen is
brand new. Android is already here, and now
a mature
platform. It would be OK with me if Android become the
defacto
standard. HTML5 will never equal it for sure. Of
course Tizen is promising, but
it doesn't address the vast,
existing hoard of devices, of which Android runs
directly on
over 70% of. Android has the further advantage of
neutralizing Win
8, whereas an HTML5 based platform helps
Win 8.
