If your definition of a great app is one that has unfettered access to your OS, uh... well, good for you, I guess.

Enjoy your MIDI-playing personal USB fan on your Android phone--I'll just be over here getting actual work done.

What makes you think Android apps have unfettered access to the OS? Android's sandbox and permission system is pretty sophisticated and whenever you want install an app you can see exactly what it's allowed to do and then decide whether you actually want to install it.

Are you saying you can't get work done unless some third party makes those decisions for you?
