The response I wrote to CNNMoney.com regarding the article:
All hardware is built differently and will affect the experience as much as the software. In the article, I feel it is imperative to mention the hardware being used. Not all Android devices are made the same, in fact they differ to a large degree and cannot represent the operating system uniformly or accurately.
The picture in the article appears to be an Android device meant for social use such as The Devour, Backflip, or Cliq. These devices would never be recommended for business use.
I feel it is the responsibility of the author to indicate what hardware he is using as that will affect the experience equally as much as the software. As a result of not doing so, this article is an inaccurate representation of the operating system.
On a side note: I use my DROID for business. I access excel spreadsheets, agency management systems, Microsoft Exchange, PDFs, AND make phone calls simultaneously without a stutter.
Edit: I think I read everything and don't remember any mention of the device(s) used. I hope that's right.
