With Android it’s the software stupid
,----[ Quote ]
| The same is true for the Google Android making its debut today. But in this
| case it’s the software stupid.
|
| The key to the software, meanwhile, doesn’t lie in what you see. It lies in
| the tools used to build applications or “stores,” their simplicity, and their
| openness.

| I get it: the iPhone has a touchscreen, but lacks other spiffy features.

Is Google Android the Next Windows?

| On the flip side, Good Android (here’s a video demo) is a cross-platform
| software environment that multiple hardware vendors and service providers are
| expected to embrace. Although Android isn’t fully baked, Google is
| aggressively promoting the operating environment to third party developers.
| The idea is to get developers on board early, so that tons of Android
| applications are ready when Android-compatible devices finally debut.

| Eventually, The VAR Guy suspects, Android devices will easily leapfrog
| iPhone’s market share. But that’s not a terrible thing for Apple. Although
| Apple nearly died on the desktop, Apple’s more recent innovations prove that
| you can thrive even when you hold less than 10 percent of a technology
| market.

First look: latest Google Android SDK a big improvement
,----[ Quote ]
| I tested several of the applications that come with the SDK, including the
| mapping program, the contact book, and the web browser. I also tested the
| experimental Google Talk chat integration feature. I was able to connect to
| Google Talk and receive messages, which are displayed as items on the
| notification panel. The performance and usability of the bundled applications
| is pretty decent.

Android SDK in the fly

| hardDrive in this case, don’t. Because you’re completely able to run it from

Android opens door to IC open source
,----[ Quote ]
| The backers of Android point to the benefits of an open-source model: more
| innovation as more companies develop solutions, faster time-to-market, lower
| price points and even better utilization of the sheer power of the
| applications processors. Indeed, Texas Instruments and Qualcomm hope their
| participation in Android will spur design wins and make it easier to
| incorporate their chips into the wave of Android handset introductions the
| market is likely to see later this year.
