It would be a great statement if current market had at least one successful independent competitor. Currently Apple and Google are objectively only companies providing such options and not because they are the best, but because their very offensive strategy towards third party manufacturers, companies and independent developers. For example, when for the last time have you seen ungoogled Android which is as usable as regular Android phone?
Monopoly is not a good thing, because it is exactly, what stops innovations. Monopoly is also very unfair to end user.
If Apple doesn't have a lot of competition among other corporations in mobile software market, they will have to bear with competition on their own platform.
I'm especially excited about open-source solutions, looking forward for new application stores.
