  • Google will simply stop developing new Android versions as fast as it has over the last year
  • Google is supposedly shifting development away from Android's core to focus on applications and also plans to put more separation between those applications and the core operating system. That means that new applications that arrive along with new operating-system releases could also be downloaded for older phones through the Android Market without having to pass through the handset maker or carrier's approval process.
  • Google is in much better competitive shape with the 2.1 release and can start prioritizing developer stability over core features.

  • Working from home or being able to take your work home and finish it off has clearly been made possible with the advent and increased reliance on mobile computing.

  • ...3 more annotations...
  • mobile computing devices become even cheaper and available with disk space storage ranging from hundreds of gigabytes to several terabytes, additional external disk storage devices, very impressive memory module sizes, processor power/speed etc, the obvious question that comes to mind is: are we witnessing the demise of desktop computers?
  • Desktop computers are bulky, take up more space, and as already explained, now compete with mobile computing devices in terms of processing power, disk storage, memory and cost. In most work environments, the need to take work home is certainly more of a norm than the exception in the ever competitive corporate environment.
  • The desktop computer is evolving to become the multimedia host at home and an entertainment centre.
