Seems like this is the week for Android 2.1 , doesn’t it? Sure enough, after Verizon Wireless started letting out the Android 2.1 update for the Droid ERIS , here we are with another wireless carrier offering it up for another device. This time around it’s Sprint, and the Samsung Moment is the handset getting all the attention.
Not too long ago Twitter announced that they were working on an official app for Android. At that time no one knew when it was expected to hit the market. Well, today is the day, we didn’t have to wait long for this app to hit Android
The Android tablets are coming out of the wood work. This is another one that promises to be an affordable option for all your Android needs. It looks pretty good and if the dock comes with it, it would really be a great deal. The version of Android that is preinstalled is not known. This tablet has a 7 inch capacitive touch screen, Flash 10.1, SD card slot (I’m assuming it’s a micro slot), Market access via the Cruz Market and some type of eReader capabilities
Today Vodafone has updated their “Coming Soon” page for the Nexus One to “Coming Soon/April”. From looks of it, it could be a mistake. Why put up an April release in the last days of April? It has been almost four months now that Vodafone customers have been waiting for the Nexus so if this is true you can possibly put in your order today. I checked the Google phone page and it still says coming this spring. This phone will likely get the same subsidized treatment as the T-Mobile version. So whenever it is available get ready to get locked in for a specified amount of time, that isn’t a bad thing trust me, it’s a great handset and it will guaranteed get the rumored 2.2 before every other device
Don’t break your neck heading over there just yet. We all would love to get our hands on this phone, and the price can’t be beat. It’s free and this offer comes with a few other perks. You have to sign up as a Sprint Premier customer to win.
This is a great accomplishment for Android. The market is growing faster than most of us anticipated. This was revealed during this afternoon’s Q1 earnings press conference, Jeff Huber who is Google’s senior VP of engineering. Also, Google views the Nexus One as a “profitable business” even though most analyst feel it didn’t sell enough units overall. Android use is up 70 percent from last quarter, and there are reportedly 60,000 Android phones sold every day in the world. The popularity of Android coupled with the ease of app development is attracting more and more developers to the platform. Developers have more freedom over Android than they do over other platforms(iPhone’s in particular)
Twitter’s Evan Williams has recently revealed that the company plan to shortly offer an official Android application for the microblogging network. The announcement was made at the Twitter Chirp conference, but it isn’t yet clear whether Twitter are planning to acquire an existing Android app (like they recently did with the iPhone Tweetie app), or whether they’d prefer to partner with a developer or mobile device maker and create the app from scratch. Twitdroid and Seesmic’s Android application are currently among the most popular Twitter clients for Android phones.

Looks like Intel is late to their own party.
