Google Android-Based Handset Prototype
The sweetest part of the Dream is the Android Market — Google's answer to the Apple App Store. Whereas many Apple apps cost money (typically anywhere from $.99 to $9.99), at launch all Android Market apps will be free. That includes BreadCrumbz, a picture-based navigation program that doesn't just give you a drawing of your route, but also includes real-world photos to keep you on track. Another interesting app, TuneWiki, is a tricked-out music player that encourages mobile karaoke, by synchronizing written lyrics onscreen to the song's YouTube video.Let's see, open source, major player support in key enabling technologies like search and navigation, freeware utilities to the public -- Apple, you can be afraid now, very afraid.
This video of the Android concept was published a little less than a year ago and it's still pretty impressive. Now if they could just find a real service carrier, we'd be in business.
I think I speak for everyone when I say: Let the price war begin! :)
People read the stupidest things. Like this sig, for instance.
Hahaha! So true. Love it!

I don't like the look of the phone really. I can't wait to see the OS though.

warlord: Looks good. With that said i still have the most basic of phones
Im like Warlord I have this cheap motorola phone with Alltel service! All my needs at this point is a basic phone, with texting.Just dont really have a need for other than that right now.Sure If I had one I would probably be quite impressed but right now I guess keep it simple.Now on the other hand my daughter is real big on these phones!
