Verizon Exchange Fee Could Hurt Droid with Businesses - CIO.com - Business Technology L... - 0 views

    "Droid was looking like quite the contender with its QWERTY keyboard, 5MP camera, replaceable battery, turn-by-turn GPS and MicroSD slot.

    Good sales, but they are behind where they hoped the phone would go. What were they expecting? There are several models of Android phone to choose on multiple carriers.

Upgrade path to Android 2.0 uncertain - Network World - 1 views

  • With this week's release of Verizon Wireless' Droid phone comes the first real test of the potential for fragmentation with Android. The Droid will be the first phone to run Android 2.0. After it goes on sale Friday, there will be Android phones on the market running three different versions of the OS.
  • Google gave an equally vague answer to questions about which phones might be upgraded and if any of them had hardware limitations that might prevent an upgrade. "Because Android is open source, all software updates we release are available for carriers and handset makers to take and update their current or future Android-powered devices," Katie Watson, a Google spokeswoman said via e-mail.
