So over at the recently-concluded Google I/O conference, Google unveiled Android 2.2, or Froyo, to the world. Now with people eagerly waiting for iPhone OS 4.0, Android 2.2 amazingly showed that Google can beat Apple, and if Google manages to get the products they announced out (oh my lord I want me some Google TV), there is a huge possibility that Apple may play catch-up soon.
Okay, so Android 2.2, called Froyo, is out. What makes it stand out? What features are going to make people dump their iPhones and go for Android handsets? Here are the top new features of Google's smartphone operating system, taken from ZDNet:
- Improved security with ...

If you're planning to buy the Nexus One from Google's online store so you can get it contract-free, you well, you better act fast. Google will soon stop selling their flagship Android phone online. Don't think for a moment that this move means that Google is going to drop the Nexus One. This is merely a change in strategy.
It seems that Google has realized that people don't like to buy phones without seeing them first, so they're switching strategies and are selling the Nexus One via retail outlets.
From Google's official blog, the changes to Nexus One's availability are:
More retail availability. As we make Nexus One available in more countries ...

Now, I don't mean to sound like a fanboy here, but the iPhone still is the best-looking smartphone out there. I may not be totally sold on the iPhone OS and Apple's Apps Marketplace, but the iPhone's smooth, minimalistic hardware always appealed to me. And then there's the iPhone OS. I know, there's so much love for the iPhone OS and its huge apps marketplace, but it really is not my cup of tea. I'd rather go for something more... open. Kind of like Google's Android.
Now of course, we can't really ask for Google Android to be installed on the iPhone, that'd be a pipe dream. But that never stopped an ...

That was pretty fast, don't you think? Just a few short weeks ago, there came out rumors that Google has been giving its employees a mysterious phone that they were supposed to test out over the holidays. Then we see Google employees praising the phone to high heavens over on their Twitter accounts. Heck, after Google's initial announcement, I was expecting the Nexus One to be released around March to June.
So imagine my surprise to see that the Nexus One is already out, but there's a review already on TechCrunch! Michael Arrington himself gives his two cents on the Nexus One.
Basically, the phone is everything people loved about Android, ...

Rumor: The Google Tablet to go after Apple’s iSlate?
Posted by Ade as Gadgets, Google, Hardware, Linux
Oh boy, is Google sure on a roll. Mere weeks after the announcement of the Google Phone, the Android-powered Nexus One, and the Google Netbook running (also recently-announced) Google Chrome OS, rumors began flying of another hardware product running Chrome OS. And this time it's a tablet computer.

If you need any more proof that Google Android is definitely going to step up to take the iPhone down, Google is coming out with Google Goggles. Okay, that product name kind of reminds me of a website that used to infect unsuspecting users with loads of malware, but trust me, Google Goggles is different. Way different.
Google Goggles basically is mobile search taken to a different level. Instead of using words, use your Android phone's camera to take a picture, and Google Goggles will process and attempt to recognize the image, and will return relevant search results.
Okay, since Google Goggles is still in its infancy, we're going to definitely run ...

The Google Nexus One Phone: specifications revealed
Posted by Ade as Google, Handheld, Hardware, Phones
It looks like Google's not going to let news about their Nexus One die, because specs of the much-awaited Google Phone have come out. I'm guessing this is meant to stem the steady stream of questions about the phone's guts. I mean, how the heck are we all supposed to know if the Nexus One is going to be good if we don't know a single thing about its hardware specs?
The good news is that the guys from Engadget have been able to get their hands on a Nexus One, and darn it's good. The highlights of the Nexus One specs are as follows: ...

According to Unwired View, Android 6.1 Donut is already gradually being rolled out over the air.
Donut is a OTA (Over-the-air) update which you should be seeing very soon, if not already. From what we’ve heard, T-Mobile is working to roll it out as fast as possible to help fix the system reboot error that’s well-known on current versions.
Other feature improvements include:
Improved Android Market experience Camera, camcorder, and gallery interface Updated Voice Search Updated search experience (similar but not identical to iPhone’s spotlight search)So have you guys received the new Android or are you still waiting for 6.1 to hit your mobile devices? How is Android Donut treating you so far?

In a short and frankly unsurprising press release, Apple has announced that Google's Dr Eric Schmidt has resigned from its board of directors.
Schmidt has been on Apple's board for three years, throughout rumors and actualization of both the iPhone and Android-based phones, but now that Google is looking to further push both Android and its own operating system (ChromeOS), that conflict of interest is all too apparent.
