No GPhone, its Android

Google launches Android: The new mobile platform with collaboration in 34 top mobile and computing companies. That's How Google shows how much it abide by his "Do No Evil" funda and also working for providing best solutions to end user rather then thinking towards the monopolizing the business.A group of 34 companies that will create a package of free software that includes everything needed to run a cell phone: an open-source, Linux-based operating system, a Web browser, and a slew of applications, including maps, e-mail, and video-sharing and -viewing tools.

This also allows third party developers to develop new application for this platform and this gives the platform numerous growth potential. he Alliance includes some of the biggest names in tech, including chipmakers Intel (INTC) and Qualcomm (QCOM), handset maker Motorola (MOT), wireless carriers T-Mobile and Sprint Nextel (S), and e-commerce provider eBay (EBAY). Startups already are itching to contribute to the Alliance's efforts—and investors are eager to fund them. Unlike with other mobile-platform providers, developers working with Android pay no licensing or other fees. They also will be able to sell their applications through a Google-created online marketplace without sharing revenues with the search giant. Google will make money on the ads served through the phone's browser.

The idea of generating revenue only by the ads served and not by licensing will smart enough to keep Google a leader in the mobile game for coming years. Actually the revenue by ads idea has so mush potential that it can even provide the users all the hardware and software for free, if implemented in correct way.

Android and Open Handset Alliance will poses a great threat to Symbian and Windows mobile OS. Andy Rubin, head of the Android project at Google, hopes that within five years, "hundreds of millions" of Android-based phones will be sold per year. After five years of effort, Microsoft ships about 20 million phones based on Windows Mobile each year. And Microsoft already works with more than 160 operators and 48 handset makers and offers more than 18,000 applications for Windows Mobile.

So Again Google is here and Future is Open.
