Droid sold a quarter million units in one week. I wouldn't claim that "nobody is going to buy it".
It seems to me that you really don't get Android. You don't need to have one phone to be a great commercial success to develop for it. You need to think on the long-tail. If you have 50 Android phones, each selling "only" about half-million units, you already have more of a potential market than targeting the iPhone.
You still seem to not get it. The Droid is just one phone. It won't take one phone for Android to become dominant. It might and probably will take 3 or 50.
The Apple platform has proven itself useless in mobile computing. The Android has proven itself to fill those gaps.
