Sony Ericsson To Use Android Phone 2.0

on 05/22/2009 06:31 PST

Sony Ericsson’s Asia marketing VP Peter Ang revealed that the company’s initial Android-powered smartphones will rely on version 2.0 of the software, although nothing more than that has been leaked out. We do know that it will offer more multimedia support compared to 1.5, while leaks have pointed towards a tighter integration with social networks with Twitter in the picture as well. Ang himself doesn’t think that Android will displace other smartphone operating systems that are being plied on their handsets at this point in time, including Symbian and Windows Mobile. Are you as pessimistic as Ang, or do you think Android 2.0 will usher in a new chapter?

Android Android is mobile operating system from Google. The software was originally built by a company called Android Inc, that was purchased by Google in 2005. From its modest debuts, Android has become a powerhouse that powers not only smartphones and tablet, but a host of other less high-profile devices and gadgets. Although Android is not a community-driven project, Google does release the source code as open-source under the Apache license.
