Android - the winning formula for tablets and netbooks?
,----[ Quote ]
| What might the iPad have been? Apple
| announced it as a Magical and Revolutionary
| Device, defining "an entirely new category".
| But it actually only addresses a small part
| of the yawning gap between mobile handsets
| and notebook computers, where there's still
| a lot of defining to be done. There's space
| there for dramatically different
| reimaginations of the iPhone, for counter-
| attacks from handset companies, and for
| diverse devices based on Google's Android.

,----[ Quote ]
| It canât touch the form factor of the iPad
| or some other tablet devices, but a $200
| device that runs the open source Linux,
| Android or Chrome operating systems might
| just find a place in the already-crowded
| tablet world.

HTC Touch Pro2 Runs Ubuntu Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| This is probably another development that
| Microsoft wonât be too happy about, but
| itâs not like they can stop you from
| tinkering with your phone, right? Now,
| after the HTC Touch HD has been hacked to
| run Android, weâve got wind of a HTC Touch
| Pro2 running Ubuntu Linux 8.04. Of course,
| the OS is really meant for laptops and
| desktops, but again, nobody can stop you
| from having some fun, right?
