No More Android Updates for the G1 Phone?

As JKOnTheRun reports, Android engineers have tweeted that T-Mobile G1 (HTC Dream) phones may not be able to handle any OS updates going forward. It seems that the early G1 model has limited system memory and the current version 1.5 (aka Cupcake) update totally filled it up. There are also reports coming out of Asia (HTC is a Taiwan company) that the HTC Magic, dubbed the MyTouch 3G, will be receiving the innovative ?Sense? UI update only in Europe, but that T-Mobile models in the U.S. won?t get it. Check out more here.

Fashionistas, Design and Early Open Source Smartphones

Today, JKOnTheRun notes that HTC--the first hardware maker to back the open source Android operating system--may be putting Android on over 50 percent of its future phones. If true this is a big blow to Windows Mobile, the platform on the major portion of HTC?s lineup for some time, they conclude. I have to agree, and this is yet another example of Android's pronounced momentum in the smartphone market, where we're going to see large waves of Android handsets arrive this year and next. Android is shaping up to be a hugely influential open source platform.? For Android phones to really get competitive with the iPhone, though, the cool factor matters. This is much more important than it may seem at first glance.
