Some enterprising fellows over at eLinux.org have found a way to get Google’s Android OS onto a Nokia N810 with its OMAP2 chips, which means this particular hack should also work with some Sharp Zaurus models. Anyways, the Android OS looks simply heavenly on the N810 and just goes to further prove that the OS isn’t limited by a cellular connection, it can work on a broad range of mobile devices.
Well, looky here, we have a new Android OS prototype device still coming from HTC. All the previous models we have seen have been white, and looked considerably different, and one of the prototypes was some dark color, but it was a giant touch screen ala the iPhone, so this is a new 3rd prototype, which bodes well for development, but what’s different.
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 you heard the manner in which they stated this, several times due to the question coming up a lot, you got the hint that what they were really saying was, lets focus on Android and the OHA, we aren’t (keyword) announcing, a Google Phone (keyword again) today. They also kept reiterating that if they were to make a single Google Phone, they would need an OS and platform to base it off of, and Android is perfect for that. So, they weren’t giving up the details on a potential Google Phone, but chances are its still going to happen.
