Google shows Android, faces software challenge
MacNN | The Macintosh News Network —
[image] Google used its London Developer Day on Tuesday to show a late build of its Android mobile operating system in an event that suggests continuing resistance to the platform.

The atmosphere at the event was nonetheless apprehensive, according to anecdotal reports from the British event. Although every developer at the presentation was aware ...

By Aidan Malley Published: 06:55 PM EST An invitation sent out on Tuesday by T-Mobile asks the media to gather next week to see the first phone built on the Android mobile platform, but will also pit Apple and Google against each other -- if reluctantly.

10 Things that May Make Google’s Android Better than Apple’s iPhone
Touch Podium —
The iPhone is one phenomenal piece of hardware. You can do almost anything with this cellphone that you could with a computer. In fact, you could do more, and it’s portable. It’s a darn computer the size of your hand. Apple did a marvelous job with their iPhone, and has made the product even better with the release of their second-generation iPhone; the iPhone 3G.
But, is there a better cellphone available out there? Personally, I say no. But what about the coming weeks? Personally, I don’t think so, but it is very possible that one cellphone announced by T-Mobile will do fairly well, too. Then ...
