Micheal Chu from E28 was kind enough to give our man Vincent a fairly thorough walk through of one of their older devices that they just ported Android over to. It has the GSM stack, can do messaging and everything else that an Android phone should be able to do.
It almost seems that amongst the other announcements today, Vincent had his own personal agenda to get his hands on as many Android OS based handsets as possible. He didn’t do too bad either by hitting up Qualcomm, TI, and ARM, all of which had booths with their prototypes.
In fact, even bigger than this phone is the stack its running known as CLP or the Convergent Linux Platform. The company backing this stack says that with this stack the time required to bring an Android device to market could be halved.
For those of you bored with the Neo 1973 hardware, OpenMoko is back with the Freerunner. It has 2D and 3D graphics capabilities, a 500MHz processor. There is also WiFi, and motion sensors, god knows how those’ll be used.
Well, looky here, we have a new Android OS prototype device still coming from HTC.

It’s been a long week waiting around for more updates or really anything new regarding the Open Handset Alliance or Android. Alas, today is November 12th, and they have released the SDK for Android.
Not only have they dropped the SDK on us, but $10 millions dollars up for grabs by the developers who make the [...]
Apparently this device leaked last July within an HTC roadmap, and now its being used within the confounds of Google as one of the first Androids. I haven’t even seen Android yet and I’d be willing to wager it looks better on this phone than Windows Mobile 6 would have.

Today the OHA started its newly formed alliance by having a conference call for the press. There were a lot of the members of the conference present, and they all had something to say. The best part however, was the Q&A.
The most important things to note are, they aren’t announcing a Google Phone, now, if [...]
