GOOGLES ANDROIDS

It’s no secret that Google wants to dominate the Cellular Phone Market with its GOOGLES ANDROIDS application.

New data reveals that the product sales of GOOGLEs ANDROIDs  Phone structured handsets have over run cellular devices with the Microsoft Windows platform.

Sales of smart phones that utilize the Android application have stole roughly 10% of mobile handsets sold worldwide. Moreover this only the results in the 1st quarter of this year. We are aware that this is a huge boost on the 1.6 market share Google it grasped last year at this time. Windows Mobile dependent mobile phones were not as popular by users in the same time frame. In truth, Windows Mobile Devices product sales that had accounted for 6.8 per cent of all smart phones sales in the same time frame are now behind from 10.2 per cent in the first quarter of last year.

Additionally, earlier this month, the analyst firm, NPD Group, noted that mobile phones with the Googles Androids platform accounted for 28 per cent of all smart phone sales in North America. Now associate this to the Apple iPhone’s 21 per cent marketplace share. However, BlackBerry mobile phones (made by Research in Motion (RIM), go on to dominate. The truth is, RIM enjoys 36% of the mobile phone market in the US, in the 1st of 2010.

Googles Androids are relatively fresh on the cellular phone scene but they have been taking over like a whirlwind. The statistics shows that mobiles with Googles Androids application are being bought at amazing rates. Recall that the actual first Google Android dependent handset merely went on sale in October of 2008. As of that time many other phone manufacturers have touted the Android application, including such corporations as HTC, Motorola and Sony Ericson. According to Google’s chief executive, Eric Schmidt Android smart phones are being produced on a scale of 60,000 per day.

Analyst Caroling Milanesi who works for Gartner thinks that this upward momentum is the direct outcome of intensive advertising. This marketing is evident when you go on the net. It appears like every website you check out that uses Google’s Adsense, is running advertisements for cell phones that come with the Google Android platform.

To be honest, Google has the monopoly on advertising in the world. It has in a very brief period branded the Google Android. There appears little that its competitors can do to slow them down at this time. We suspect Googles Androids to be a household name in 2010.

Hacker and programmer David Wang has finally done it. He has hacked Apple’s iPhone. Wang has successfully booted the iphone with Google’s Android.

This really is quite an achievement: booting Google’s Android os on Apple’s iPhone

Wang, full fledged member of the a unit called “The Dev Team,” that is dedicated to hacking iPhones. In the last few days he posted a video showing the Google Android on an iPhone.

The video shows the booting process complete with the Tux Linux mascot. Moreover it shows Wang using the Google Droid for surfing the internet, getting a text message, answering a phone call and playing a song. Wang has the iPhone set up with a dual-boot configuration. You can observe this as Wang starts the video with the iPhoine operating on its OS.

Wang voluntarily admits that his hack is not production-quality at this point. He states that the hack is still in its Alpha stage but he asserts that the whole thing operates perfectly when it comes to functionality.

Wang’s Droid patch on the iPhone is quite a technological achievement Some say it will not transform the industry nor the behavior of mainstream users. The one noteable thing Wangs hack does make obvious is that the iPhone can be hacked even with its hold on the source code.

Wang remarks that he has been working on his patch since 2008. The video he employs to reveal his successful hack is made with a first-generation iPhone. But, new iPhones are also apt to be compromised by this hack.

Wang asserts that it ought to be easy to port ahead to the iPhone 3G. He readily admits that the 3GS will take more effort however. Wang’s aspiration is to make the Google Droid a viable alternative or supplement for the iPhone and perhaps we can finally integrate Flash.
