Google Maps for Android: Speak and Ye Shall Find

,----[ Quote ]
| It’s about to get a whole lot noisier in the real “land of the lost.” Google 
| just outed a Maps update for Android handset owners, and one of the new 
| features is voice search. Unlike prior updates, this one won’t be pushed out 
| over-the-air. Instead, you’ll need to hit up the Android Marketplace and 
| download it. Once you do, you’ll have not only the voice search, but some 
| other digital cartography goodies as well.

Google’s Android to run laptops, challenge Microsoft

,----[ Quote ]
| ARM, based in Cambridge, England, is a potential beneficiary of Android’s
| success because Microsoft’s Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 don’t run on
| ARM-based computers.
|
| “Microsoft going forward may have to work on an ARM-based solution,” said
| Daiwa’s Huang. “If Microsoft doesn’t want to see Google Android get into the
| PC market, they will have to support ARM; otherwise, ARM will go perfectly
| with Android.”

Is Android Google's Ticket into the Enterprise?

,----[ Quote ]

| strategy, according to one industry analyst. But before the search engine
| giant can threaten Microsoft's enterprise supremacy, most observers of
| wireless industry efforts agree that the company's open source OS platform

Google Exec: Android To Beat iPhone

,----[ Quote ]
| Rich Miner even went after Apple's handheld darling.  "Once you have devices
| out there from Motorola, HTC, Samsung, and so on, there's a much larger
| potential market on Android than for the iPhone," he said.  "[T]here's a
| single manufacturer, it's targeted at a particular demographic, and it falls
| far short of the 1 billion mobile phones sold every year worldwide."
