Google bets on Android future

,----[ Quote ]
| But the company is going much further. At the end of 2007 it lifted the lid 
| on Android, an open mobile operating system that is being used to power a new 
| generation of devices under the Open Handset Alliance, a group which involves 
| firms like HTC and chip designer ARM.   
| 
| Android is the creation of Andy Rubin, Google's director of mobile platforms.
| 
| He believes that a lack of openness in the mobile phone space has stifled 
| innovation to date.

Android SDK in the fly

| The open source community called Vafeo, once more surprises bringing now not 
| only a full Operational System but one Linux Distro (Vd_android), with 
| Android SDK built in. In many cases people get bother to mess with the OS 
| hardDrive in this case, don’t. Because you’re completely able to run it from 
| your CD, not requiring installation. If you prefer install, you’re free to 
| choose, just choose where, in second partition, replacing your OS, or also 
| install in your pen drive.
