Android 2.2 Headed to OEMs in Coming Weeks
,----[ Quote ]
| Sending Android 2.2 to OEMs and open
| source community in the coming weeks is a
| good thing, right? Definitely. (Hello
| 2.2 ROM anyone?) Continuing to expect the
| Motorola Droid or Droid Incredible to
| receive the update sometime in June?
| Probably a reach.

Google: Guess what, Apple, we've discovered the internet
,----[ Quote ]
| The war of words between Google and Apple
| â in public at least â has never raged
| more fiercely. On stage, as the search
| company announced the new generation of
| its Android mobile phone operating system,
| Vice President Vic Gundotra repeatedly
| referred disparagingly to the closed
| ecosystem that Apple uses for its
| products.

Google: Android fragmentation isn't fragmentation
,----[ Quote ]
| "Some of the press has called it
| fragmentation, but that's probably the
| wrong word for it," he told reporters last
| week at Google I/O, the company annual
| developer conference. "The better word for
| it is 'legacy.' With these phones and
| devices, the iteration cycle is incredibly
| fast. It used to be that every 18 months,
| a new device would reach the market. But
| we're seeing it happen every three or four
| months. The software obviously has to keep
| up and I don't think anyone is harmed by
| it.

A Step into the World of Googleâs Android
,----[ Quote ]
| Since Google first announced that they
| were working on a Linux based open source
| mobile platform, many people were already
| on board with the Android operating
| system. The establishment of the Open
| Handset Alliance already saw many major
| figures in the mobile industry moving to
| support Googleâs project.

Flash on Android 2.2: Slow loading, but smooth running
,----[ Quote ]
| eWEEK evaluated a Nexus One running
| Android 2.2 and a beta Flash Player 10.1,
| and found Flash to be slow loading, but
| surprisingly smooth and power efficient.
| Meanwhile, HTC vows that most of its
| Android phones will move to version 2.2
| later this year, and a 4Q release for
| Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) has been tipped.

Android Is Free, Steve
,----[ Quote ]
| In an interview with Fortune Magazine,
| Steve Ballmer stated âThereâs nothing free
| about Android.â Wrong, Steve. Android is
| Free:
|
| * anyone can run the software,
| * anyone can examine the source code,
| * anyone can modify the source code,
| and
| * anyone can distribute the code
| unmodified or modified under the same
| licence that comes with the code.
