Let’s get this started

The Android platform, provided by Google as part of the Open Handset Alliance, is getting closer to its release. So this blog is trying to track news about the platform, give opinions on the directions taken and will eventually (I hope) be able to provide reviews of Android-enabled devices as well. These are interesting times… a lot of platforms are competing for market share and seem to be trying to out-open each other. So far, Android seems to be a very good solution, but we have yet to see the first devices hit the market, whereas other platforms have estbalished themselves already. A lot will depend on the carriers and on the way software can be deployed on the Android platform. The big question is, is it really going to be as open as most of us think it will be, or will carriers once again place restrictions on what you can actually do? Only time will tell…
