Open Source Re-writes the Rules for Mobile
,----[ Quote ]
| This was simply not possible with older,
| proprietary mobile operating systems, because
| you couldn't hack them to work on different
| hardware. With Android, that all changes,
| opening up a whole new world of mobile re-use.
| As the same post rightly points out:
|
| This story shows me once again how
| important Android is to the mobile OS
| space. The idea of taking older phones and
| using a free, powerful OS to breath new
| life into them is the promise of open
| source software like Android.
|
| Indeed, and another instance of where free
| software really does give you new and useful
| freedoms.

Android Phone Prices Declining Quicker Than Expected
,----[ Quote ]
| it's expected to sell for about Â100 (US$155) unlocked.
| That's over 54% less than the price tag that came on the
| original Pulse only a few months ago. Granted the screen
| size does factor in for most heavy users, the general public
| will likely fall in love with the price.
