Will Linux succeed through the Android OS?
,----[ Quote ]
| Last week I finally dumped my Blackberry
| smartphone and got myself one of the
| Verizon Droid phones; specifically the
| Droid Eris. I was waiting for the Nexus One
| to come to Verizon Wireless for quite some
| time and when I read that it was to be
| offered through Google only (unlocked and
| without a contract deal) for $530, I said
| forget about it. I will go to the store
| instead and get one of the Droid phones
| (Motorola Droid & HTC Droid Eris).

Clash of the titans: Apple, Google battle for the mobile Web
,----[ Quote ]
| Which platform wins remains uncertain,
| despite all the hobgoblining around from
| Apple defenders insisting it will be
| iPad/iPhone/iPod touch. There also are

| will make lots of people rich. While I've
| focused here on Apple and Google as titans,
| Nokia is still the reigning mobile device
| maker by a huge margin, Research in Motion
| dominates the smar
