Looks like many people are very interested to see the first Android.

Wow. More mainstream news coverage Android gets, better it is

. But I kinda disagree with the "extremely fragmented" comment that was made in that video. As of now, there are very limited options available for PDA phone OSes. Few I can think of are WinMo, Symbian, OSX, Plam and proprietary OSes from LG and Samsung (which I guess will move to Android if they could). WinMo has been leading this market for a while now, which has stagnated the rate of innovation. Android is bringing the perfect change in this industry by pushing innovation further to new limites

. Can't wait for the dream come true!

Well it depends on how you look at it. Its fragmented in certain ways. But this should open it right up.

. Oh well! I guess the plans for Android are still at our local planning
office in Alpha Centauri and we still have some time to lodge formal complaints of requesting an early release. *puts on his tin-foil hat*.
