We were all expecting a cute looking Gphone from google, which would be cheap and fully loaded with useful software, and would sell hot in the market. With the kind of reach they have to the public, they could have capture the majority market share in one year. But google proved to be smarter than we thought.
Google announced the Open Handset Alliance and the Android.
The Open Handset Alliance™, a group of more than 30 technology and mobile companies who have come together to accelerate innovation in mobile and offer consumers a richer, less expensive, and better mobile experience. Together they have developed Android™, the first complete, open, and free mobile platform.
Instead of creating an entire phone, they created an open Operating System which every phone manufacturer can use. Developers can create applications without any restrictions.
Platform always beats an application.
Google applied the same principle again. Instead of creating a phone, they created an OS that would become a platform for thousands of developers and hundreds of phone manufacturers.
The days of symbian, and windows mobile seems to be numbered.
