In the old days, the mobile industry was a predictable. Companies keep designing new phone, each better then the previous version, nothing revolutionary. Then Apple came in and sort of slapped everyone on the face with its new iPod with GSM phone capabilities, known to many as the iPhone.
Now it seems that everybody wants to get into mobile phones. Google announce its mobile platform OS known as Android. Clever move on Google part by not making a phone but a mobile OS instead. Google is not a hardware company.
Microsoft is not just sitting still hanging on their Windows Mobile either. While the Microsoft $40 billion deal with Yahoo! still hanging, they when shopping for another company. This time they get a mobile phone company Danger Inc. the makes of the T-mobile Sidekick.
