Google`s Android Materializes as T-Mobile`s Dream!

The phone is made by HTC, which has historically been making Windows Mobile phones. But apparently had a change of heart after most of their phones were met with very little success despite the huge amount of effort they poured into them.

The phone is boasts 3G, Fast Internet (although ironically, T-Mobile, is one of the last wireless providers to get in the 3G market in the US)

Google's approach is open-source, community driven where competition is driving the creation of new and wonderful new applications for the new platform which faces competition from Microsoft's Windows Mobile, Apple's iPhone, LiMo (new Linux based Mobile architecture), REM Blackberry and the very established Symbian operating systems

What is certain is that the next couple of years are going to face a huge competition for the hearts, minds and bucks of Mobile consumers. Competition that will benefit the consumers more than anyone else.

The day and age of the less than $100 smartphone is upon us! People like me are going to cry for the thousands of $$$ they spent on crappy old smartphones that barely worked, most of the time!

Here's a cool video showing the new phone

My personal projection for the future is that smart Phones are going to be like PCs, the hardware will be similar or compatible with each other while the user will have the freedom of installing whatever software they like to use.
