But there was Android. If you cared about loading, you could ditch Apple. You had something else to go to.
Now there's nothing.
There were zero Android phones in 2007. The G1 launched in 2008 as a brand new platform with no third party apps. In 2007, Windows Mobile was the popular platform for people who liked loading their own software on their phone.
If you were around for the early Android scene you might have heard of XDA Developers -- which was named for the O2 XDA Windows Mobile phone.
