Android 2.0, and why you should know about it

500x_android20mainI’ve been hearing a lot about Android 2.0, and I thought I should let you all know about it. Right now, it has been sweeping the nation, even though it has only been commercially available for a few days.

Android is a mobile operating system that incorporates Linux kernel, and was initially developed by Google. Motorola just released the Droid, the first phone to use Android 2.0, and it is making quite an imprint on the mobile marketplace.

Here is what is making a real splash: Google Maps Navigation. This is a free turn-by-turn navigation that is only available on Android 2.0. It is possible that it could replace a traditional GPS.

Rest assured, we have not heard the last of Google’s Android.
