Will Linux succeed through the Android OS?
,----[ Quote ]
| Last week I finally dumped my Blackberry
| smartphone and got myself one of the
| Verizon Droid phones; specifically the
| Droid Eris. I was waiting for the Nexus One
| to come to Verizon Wireless for quite some
| time and when I read that it was to be
| offered through Google only (unlocked and
| without a contract deal) for $530, I said
| forget about it. I will go to the store
| instead and get one of the Droid phones
| (Motorola Droid & HTC Droid Eris).

| Enter the Motorola DEXT and Motorola DEXT
| (Round of applause). Despite MotoBlur not
| being among the most popular of the Android
| flavours, I am quite excited to see it
| enter the Canadian market. We will see
| soon, as there is no official release date,
| what MotoBlur is all about when Rogers
| launches the Motorola Quench, to Bell the
| Motorola DEXT, and recently as well to
| Telus the Motorola Backflip.

Clash of the titans: Apple, Google battle for the mobile Web
,----[ Quote ]
| Which platform wins remains uncertain,
| despite all the hobgoblining around from
| Apple defenders insisting it will be
| iPad/iPhone/iPod touch. There also are
| hints Google is directionally changing
| towards Apple. Google is unifying
| applications and services and offering more
| mobile apps for different mobile platforms.
| Google also is integrating apps and
| services around Android handsets. The
| winning platform, if one is to dominate
| will make lots of people rich. While I've
| focused here on Apple and Google as titans,
| Nokia is still the reigning mobile device
| maker by a huge margin, Research in Motion
| dominates the smartphone market and
| Microsoft is plotting a comeback. There are
| plenty of platforms in play, but Apple and
| Google are the most opposing.

iPhone OS 4 vs Android: Why Apple just lost the game.
,----[ Quote ]
| Android market share is going through the
| roof. With it, weâre seeing developers
| shifting their attention to Android, and
| releasing applications that are higher
| quality every day. Instead of getting
| wrapped up in politics, Android developers
| have the autonomy that Apple needs to give.
| Because letâs face it, approving every
| application does not mean that every
| application will be of good quality.
|
| For those who have crossed over from iPhone
| to Android, todayâs announcements likely
| come as too little too late. We users
| shouldnât have to wait years for basic
| features, or for nagging problems to be
| fixed. We should have the ability to find
| something that works better, if we donât
| like what youâre offering, and we should be
| able to use it on our existing device.
|
| The Apple xenophobia, in this case, might
| be alienating iPhone OS 4 from gaining
| buyers.

Android for Non-geeks

| If you're anything like me then all this
| talk about Android development, source
| code, root, version, etc., is all
| completely over your head. If you don't
| know who Cyanogen is, it's okay. Well, for
| now. So, what's the real deal about Android
| phones? So far, only the geekiest have
| them, right? I mean, who else is going to
| sit at a computer all day fiddling with
| source code to come up with some new
| doohickey thingamabob that changes a single
| light on a phone? Well, my husband, the
| biggest geek I've ever met, and thousands
| more.

Android â From the Beginning to World Domination
,----[ Quote ]
| Androidâs co-founders Andy Rubin, Nick
| Sears, and Chris White went to work for
| Google. Rubin is also the co-founder of
| Danger, Sears is a former Vice President of
| Product Marketing at T-Mobile USA, and
| White headed design and interface
| development at WebTV. Android Inc was an
| unknown company that made software for
| mobile phones. Then rumors were circulating
| that Google was planning to enter the
| mobile phone market. At Google, a team lead
| by Rubin developed a mobile platform
| powered by the Linux kernel which they
| marketed to headset makers and wireless
| carriers on the premise of providing a
| customizable and upgradeable system.
