There seems to be a tendency to use 'fragmentation' to imply something vaguely negative - a kind of problematic deviation from the norm. I Prefer to think of it as diversity.


I think it depends on your perspective on things. As a consumer I love the diversity of the Android landscape. As a developer I dislike the fragmentation of the Android landscape.


As a consumer I agree with you. As a developer, any frustration I have with the frag... ah diversity of Android is more than offset by the greater potential that it offers me.


yes, or "choice".

Having lots of different screen sizes is never "fragmentation". Having different versions of Android? Maybe.
