I really think MS should put a min cpu speed and amount of ram, but all off topic.

Im quite excited about android, I have an old HTC Blueangel, Im hoeping that someone on XDA developers will get it ported across.

Theres still not much out there that can match this little beauty, 400mhz and 128meg of ram, bliss.]]>Feb 11th 2008 9:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/Feb 11th 2008 9:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/Feb 11th 2008 10:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/Feb 11th 2008 10:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/Feb 11th 2008 1:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/

The current SDK release uses a touch-screen prototype.

From the early reports it seems like ARM and others have hardware functionality, but no one is really showing new handsets yet...]]>Feb 11th 2008 9:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/Feb 11th 2008 9:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/Feb 11th 2008 11:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/http://www.necel.com/medity/en/chipset2.html

Looks like a nice enough Mobile OS but they need to realize that packaging is half the deal why you showcase something new and mystical.]]>Feb 11th 2008 10:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/Feb 11th 2008 10:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/Feb 11th 2008 12:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/What part of "Prototyping" do you people not get? Sure its ugly - but did you see the apps? That form factor would work very well for me if the screen was high enough res to give me, say, 40+ columns in an ssh session. That UI sitting in a touch form factor like Apple's Jesus (Pronounced Hey-Soos) Phone would be fantastic.]]>Feb 11th 2008 10:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/Feb 11th 2008 10:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/google-attacks-android-at-mobile-world-congress/I don't like that TI handset. Sure, it looks like the image they've been showing for a few months now, but I don't like having to compromise both the keyboard size and the screen size by having them both on the face.

1) move the keyboard to a side-slidout
2) move the button bar to the bottom of the face
3) give the screen all of the rest of the resulting face real-estate.

It wouldn't be a sexy phone at that point, but it would make for a nice, basic, functional linux phone that neither compromises screen size, nor keyboard comfort.

Then give me an SSH client, VNC client, PIMs, an IM (not just SMS). Maybe ssh & vnc server too (so I can display it on my desktop when I'm at the office; doesn't have to directly be ssh and vnc, but an encrypted way to do a "remote desktop" like function is what I mean). Add a MicroSDHC slot, and a megapixel camera with flash ... and last, but not least, LOTS OF BATTERY TIME. That would be a wonderful base device.
