Too bad I just got Asurion to replace my Mogul with a Touch Pro, which can't (yet) run Android, and has the microSD failpipes. Sigh...]]>Feb 18th 2009 7:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/18/texas-instruments-and-wind-river-do-up-android-right/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/18/texas-instruments-and-wind-river-do-up-android-right/http://www.wmexperts.com/hands-windows-mobile-65-and-ti-omap-34x-ii-platform

WHo said you had to choose Android OR WinMo?

+1 for you man.

I salute u for these widgets even though Google hasn't released it's long awaited Widget SDK. And that tab interface was LOOOONG overdue.... that way I can use the homescreens for widgets more than shortcuts.]]>Feb 18th 2009 8:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/18/texas-instruments-and-wind-river-do-up-android-right/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/18/texas-instruments-and-wind-river-do-up-android-right/Feb 18th 2009 8:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/18/texas-instruments-and-wind-river-do-up-android-right/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/18/texas-instruments-and-wind-river-do-up-android-right/Feb 18th 2009 8:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/18/texas-instruments-and-wind-river-do-up-android-right/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/18/texas-instruments-and-wind-river-do-up-android-right/Awfully expensive for a device with a 4.1" screen.

Lets see a 7" screen convertible tablet netbook built around android. And even that should cost less than $1000.

A development system is only for developing code on, it is not for sale as a phone. Someone mentioned the iPhone, before there was an iPhone there were a number of development systems to write the code on. You wouldn't buy or use those dev systems as a phone though.

$1000 for a dev system is very fair and normal. These things have a lot of extra connectors and interfaces that a phone would never have. Every single connector and testing point is brought out to be easily accessed.

Look at some of the other pictures and see that board attached, that would be the big difference between a dev system and a production device.]]>Feb 18th 2009 3:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/18/texas-instruments-and-wind-river-do-up-android-right/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/18/texas-instruments-and-wind-river-do-up-android-right/Feb 18th 2009 5:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/18/texas-instruments-and-wind-river-do-up-android-right/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/18/texas-instruments-and-wind-river-do-up-android-right/
On the other hand it's a totally cool device, probably totally good to work with UNLESS in the company of less geeky individuals.

It's a developer tool. Keep it under wraps, leave it in the workshop/basement please. And the bezel is good for an awful lot of stickers and graffiti, it's roomy enough.]]>Feb 18th 2009 7:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/18/texas-instruments-and-wind-river-do-up-android-right/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/18/texas-instruments-and-wind-river-do-up-android-right/Feb 18th 2009 9:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/02/18/texas-instruments-and-wind-river-do-up-android-right/http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/18/texas-instruments-and-wind-river-do-up-android-right/
