ZTE looks like it’s going to place quite a bit of emphasis on Google’s Android platform, as the company is planning to release four phones that will be powered by Google’s mobile operating system. Hopefully these phones will be available outside of China, and we’re talking about the:

ZTE Blade: 3.5-inch display, WVGA touchscreen, Android 1.6, Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, FM radio, GSM/UMTS
ZTE Racer: Android 1.6, 3G, Wi-Fi, GPS, 2.8-inch QVGA touchscreen display

Android: Android is the 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. You can follow Ubergizmo on Android with Google Currents.
