Google's bid to dominate the mobile phone operating software market got a boost today when Taiwanese handset maker HTC unveiled the third phone based on the Internet search giant's technology.
Starting this spring, the Magic will be available exclusively to Vodafone customers in Great Britain, Germany, Spain and France and non-exclusively in Italy. Pricing was not disclosed. HTC executives, speaking at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, said they were working on making the device available in the United States.
The Magic can access email options such as Google Mail, POP3 and IMAP as well as Google Talk for instant messaging. Popular Google applications are also integrated such as Google Maps and Google Search as well as access to video sharing site YouTube.
It has access to Google's upcoming Android Market, an online application marketplace similar to Apple's popular App Store.
Google has introduced yet another 'FREE' piece of software in their ongoing quest to linearly and longitudinally monopolize the 'FREE' exchange of information.
LATITUDE uses cell phone tower triangulation to allow you to share your location with selected friends and/or family members.
LATITUDE is being marketed as a means for parents to keep tabs on their children, or for girlfriends to keep tabs on their boyfriends. Too bad Hillary didn't have this technology to keep tabs on slick Willy.
Slap a Google logo on it and call it Macaroni, there are a ton of smart phone apps for your grocery list, but there is only one that you can access from your gmail. Finally after many questions on the google groups about it, Google released a version of tasks for the smart phone, which works on all platforms Android, Symbian, iPhone, and Windows basically any platform that is xhtml enabled.
