But the "Googlephone" still faces a substantial challenge as it faces off against the current leader in mobile innovation, the iPhone. http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/ Fri, 09 Jan 2009 05:27:45 +0100 http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/Google_Delivers_Android_Mobile_OS_to_Developers.html The Android operating system for smartphones was released Tuesday, one day ahead of the launch of the first Android-powered phone, the T-Mobile G1. Google's decision to release its software under an open source license marks a shift in the mobile-phone software industry, which has relied largely on proprietary code. http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/ Fri, 09 Jan 2009 05:27:45 +0100 http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/SDK_Shoot_Out%2C_Android_Vs._IPhone.html snydeq writes "Fatal Exception's Neil McAllister delves into the Android and iPhone SDKs to help sort out which will be the best bet for developers now that technical details of the first Android smartphone have been announced. Whereas the iPhone requires an Intel-based Mac running OS X 10.5.4 or later, ADC membership, and familiarity with proprietary Mac OS X dev tools, the standard IDE for Android is Eclipse. And because most tasks can be performed with command-line tools, you can expert third parties to develop Android SDK plug-ins for other IDEs. Objective-C, used almost nowhere outside Apple, is required for iPhone UI development, while app-level Android programming is done in Java. 'By just about any measure, Google's Android is more open and developer-friendly than the iPhone,' McAllister writes, noting Apple's gag order restrictions on documentation, proprietary software requirements to view training videos, and right to reject your finished app from the sole distribution channel for iPhone. This openness is, of course, essential to Android's prospects. 'Based on raw market share alone, the iPhone seems likely to remain the smartphone developer's platform of choice — especially when ISVs can translate that market share into application sales,' McAllister writes. 'Sound familiar? In this race, Apple is taking a page from Microsoft's book, while Google looks suspiciously like Linux.'"Read more of this story at Slashdot. http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/ Fri, 09 Jan 2009 05:27:45 +0100 http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/SDK_Shoot_Out%2C_Android_Vs._IPhone.html snydeq writes "Fatal Exception's Neil McAllister delves into the Android and iPhone SDKs to help sort out which will be the best bet for developers now that technical details of the first Android smartphone have been announced.

Android looks pretty nice, I admit, but so far I like having full-fledged Ubuntu on my own small computer. He's not the first one to think that the iPhone would be well-employed as the guts of an ultra-portable, though.
