XPERIA X10 Supports Developers

,----[ Quote ]
| To begin with, the Android operating system 
| being used in the X10 is a product of Linux 
| development which has its roots in open source 
| technology. For those unfamiliar with 
| programming, the concept of open source is like 
| a fast food chain releasing its fried chicken 
| recipe in order for everyone to try it, modify 
| and ultimately improve it. This will mean that 
| the money earning recipe will be made open 
| to all but at the same time, this 
| potentially creates vast improvements over 
| the original recipe.

Android: Linux--Only Different

,----[ Quote ]
| It's true that Android doesn't carry over
| many of the device compatibility and other
| types of plumbing in most Linux distros,
| but there is no doubt that its Linux roots
| saved Google engineers from lots of coding
| and gave them a sense of direction as they
| shaped their new operating system. Embedded
| versions of Linux don't carry over lots of
| userspace components, either.
