Yet Verizon in the US isn't an OHA member, yet its Android phones have all the expected Android Marketplace access etc. Like the Droid or the upcoming Nexus One for Verizon. However, AT&T is not an OHA member, and has just released the Backflip, which is apparently very locked down, likely with a signed bootloader courtesy of Motorola and no access to the Android Marketplace...
