,----[ Quote ]
| The open-source Android operating system 
| did not have any market share in Q3 2008, 
| as it had only recently been introduced. In 
| Q3 2009, however, it had a market share of 
| 3.9 percent of the smartphone market. 
| Palm's WebOS had 1.1 percent, and other 
| Linux-based mobile operating systems had 
| 4.7 percent.

Why Sony Ericsson is embracing Android

,----[ Quote ]
| Our commitment to the Open Handset Alliance 
| stems from a vision of the Google Android 
| OS as an environment that enables 
| developers to create rich user experiences 
| with some of latest technologies available 
| on the Internet. The Xperia X10 is the 
| first of a family of products, some of

Verizon Wonât Offer Free Tethering But Droid Hackers Might (Updated)

,----[ Quote ]
| Similar to the jailbreak community hacking 
| the iPhone, thereâs a group of Android 
| developers determined to grant any Google-
| powered phone free access to every feature 
| imaginable. And theyâre able to accomplish 
| this task more legitimately than 
| underground iPhone hackers, since Androidâs 
| source code is completely open to 
| developers.
