Does Android Have a Target on its Back?

,----[ Quote ]
| Android is the hot smartphone platform 
| currently, and that means the competition has 
| it squarely in its sights. Apple fired the 
| first salvo with its patent infringement 
| claims against HTC. HTC is the largest maker 
| of Android phones, so the suit is a shot 
| across the bow of Android. Then we had HTC 
| sign a deal with Microsoft that gives the 
| handset maker protection over potential 
| infringement of Redmondâs intellectual 
| property (IP) for all Android handsets sold. 
| No matter what you think about Appleâs 
| claims, the HTC deal with Microsoft may have 
| the biggest long-term impact on Android.

Android This Week: Sprint Unveils EVO 4G Pricing; Patent Infringement Accusations Fly

,----[ Quote ]
| Sprint this week officially launched the 
| Android-based EVO 4G phone. The EVO will cost 
| $199 with a two-year contract and require a 
| $79.99 monthly plan that provides 450 anytime 
| talk minutes along with unlimited data, 
| texting and calling to other mobile phones. 
| However, the pricing includes a $10 âpremium 
| data charge,â which already has prospective 
| buyers complaining. Theyâre  interpreting the 
| fee as a 4G tax, yet customers in areas 
| without 4G coverage will be subject to it 
| along with those in areas that do have 4G. 
| The EVO 4G will be available on June 4 from 
| Sprint and various retailers.
