Dell Reentering The Mobile Phone Market With Google Android? - G4tv.com

Dell Reentering The Mobile Phone Market With Google Android? - G4tv.com:
"It looks like Dell is set to reenter the mobile-phone business. At least that's the story according to The Wall Street Journal. While the promise of a Windows Mobile phone from Dell is kind of dull, the potential of a Dell phone running Google Android is the hotness. The WSJ has reported:"
Dell+Google vs iPhone +ATT? I'm betting on a real horse race that is just going to speed up adoption of ubiquitous computing. Can't wait until Dell or ???? starts doing ebooks v Kindle. I figure Dell on the ground+ Google in the Cloud is a real match for Kindle+Amazon in the Cloud. Download a book for $1 instead of $9.95.? And when they focus on textbooks, who exactly is going to pay $35 for a textbook that might cost $10? Too bad the knol project didn't scale. Maybe when the knol writers can get textbook royalties. . . .
