The world’s SECOND Google Android mobile phone - the Kogan Agora

   

The T-Mobile G1 captured all the headlines by being the world’s first Android-powered mobile phone, but the plan was always to have Android be a completely open source operating system, available for use in, well, any mobile phones that people felt like sticking it in. And so, a freelance company has done just that, and made the world’s second Android phone, according to Engadget Mobile.

Hailing from Australia, it’s the Kogan Agora. And if that’s not an incitement to go, “Eh? Who?” I don’t know what is…

Google and Symbian both spit their dummies out at the Open Mobile Summit

   

Being a man, I naturally like to see two enemies squaring up to have a massive fight. It’s especially funny when it’s two big names from the world of mobile phones. We’ve seen it before with Modu having a pop at Nokia, Microsoft having a pop at Google Android, and Apple yelling that they could ‘ave everyone with one hand tied behind their back, rah, rah, bring it on, etc…

Modu lays off a quarter of their workforce - did they misjudge the mobile phone market?

   

Way back when (well, in February), we ran a story on Modu, a company aiming to bring modular mobile phones to the market. They had potential, they had a fighting spirit, and they had a unique offering for people who wanted something a bit different from their mobile phones. Put simply, they made a tiny little mobile phone module, that you could slot into other ‘jackets’, like a USB Modem sleeve, or a top-end camera phone sleeve, or whatever, the idea being that the jackets gave you your extra features like camera, or media player, and so on.

Samsung kicks Motorola off the US top spot - is the end nigh for Moto mobile phones?

   

News today from the Boy Genius Report might well be an indicator of even more bad tidings heading Motorola’s way. Up until now, no matter how badly they did with their international mobile phones, Motorola could at least rely on the American market for sustenance, since they were the number 1 manufacturer in the land of the free.

Not any more, though. Samsung have kicked them off the top spot.

American mobile phone network says T-Mobile G1 is rubbish, everyone else quite likes it

   

By now, most people have heard of the T-Mobile G1. It’s the first Google Android mobile phone, it has that marketplace thing, people queued up for hours on opening day to buy it, and so on. All reports seem to indicate it’s flawed but genius.

Well, all reports except the one by American network, Verizon, who say it’s flawed but rubbish, according to Engadget Mobile.
