Wow! 50 Androids known about, some available now and others in the pipeline. The year 2010 is looking a bit rosy for the Google Android crowd, and what a crowd it is...


Today marks the one year anniversary of the first publicly available Android phone the HTC Dream T-Mobile G1 as it made its debut on October 22nd, 2008.

I have been talking about Android for well over a year as I presented and spoke on panels at SMX Advanced, PubCon, BarCamps, Google User Technology Groups, SMX East as well a recent Cornell University study.

I enjoyed seeing the evolution in awareness and respect Android has received since I first spoke about it at conferences as people would initially scoff that it would never make any real inroads into the smartphone market nevermind ultimately supplanting the mighty iPhone.

Earlier this month I spoke at SMX East in New York City and provided an update with Cindy Krum on Android for WebProNews with the video below:
