Google Nexus One
Google's work with its Android mobile platform is bearing new fruit, in the shape of the Snapdragon-based Nexus One. Features of the phone include speech recognition and turn-by-turn navigation. The phone runs on version 2.1 (Eclair) of Android.
"The Nexus One belongs in the emerging class of devices which we call 'superphones,' with the 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset making it as powerful as your laptop computer of three to four years ago. It's our way to raise the bar on what's possible when it comes to creating the best mobile experience for consumers," said Andy Rubin, vice-president of engineering at Google.
