Google’s Android mobile
phone software platform may be the next big opportunity for application
software developers. Google announced the Open Handset Alliance and the Android
platform in November of 2007, releasing the first beta version of the Android Software
Development Kit (SDK) at the same time. Within a matter of a few months, over 1
million people had downloaded versions of the SDK from Google’s website. In the
United States, T-Mobile announced the G1 Android mobile phone in October of
2008, and estimates are that several hundred thousand G1s were sold before the
end of that year. There are already several competing mobile phone software
stacks in the market, so why is there such interest in Android?
Android has the potential for removing the barriers
to success in the development and sale of a new generation of mobile phone
application software. Just as the the standardized PC and Macintosh platforms
created markets for desktop and server software, Android, by providing a
standard mobile phone application environment, will create a market for mobile
applications—and the opportunity for applications developers to profit from
those applications.
