Open for Business: Android Phones

,----[ Quote ]
| When the first Android phone hit the market 
| last fall, enthusiastic champions and early 
| adopters of the open-source Android 
| operating system â based on Linux â were 
| thrilled. They had a one-of-a-kind 
| smartphone that set them apart from the 
| rest of the herd. BlackBerry? Feh. 
| iPhone? Meh. Windows Mobile? Nah.

Android answers call for free smartphone software

,----[ Quote ]
| Google decided to create a better operating system for mobile phones, just as
| Microsoftâs Windows helps a user to operate a PC. Unlike Windows, however,
| Googleâs software for mobiles, called Android, would be free and âopen
| sourceâ.
|
| The open source concept has been used in other technological advances ranging
| from web browsers, such as Mozillaâs Firefox, to operating systems, such as
| Linux. It means that programmers and developers can have access to the code
| behind the software, essentially its DNA.
