For abounding of you this may be accepted ability but to those of you
that are new to Android or just seek added ability we are starting a
new articulation alleged adviser to Android.
Andy Rubin (Vice President of Engineering/Android at Google)
Andy Rubin is no drifter to buzz operating systems. His acquaintance
afore Android is in fact an important allotment of Android and
smartphone OS’s as we apperceive them. Rubin began his career at Angel
in 1989. After angel he went to plan on WebTV.
Andy Rubin larboard WebTV which was acquired by Microsoft. After which
he, forth with ally Joe Britt and Matt Hershenson founded Danger.
Danger was the aggregation that developed the Danger Hip Top accessory
which a lot of of us apperceive as the T-Mobile Sidekick. Danger was
founded in 2000 and the aboriginal Sidekick debuted in 2002. T-Mobile
clearly retired the Sidekick as we apperceive it in 2010 and appear that
Microsoft would stop acknowledging the Sidekick servers this spring.
The T-Mobile Sidekick (also accepted as the mobiflip elsewhere) featured
a quick absolution accelerate out qwerty keyboard for which the buzz
took it’s name. In agreement of software, operating arrangement and
performance, with it’s absolution in 2002 it was in fact advanced of
it’s time. You see while anybody is angry for the best billow based this
and billow based that, the Sidekick stored aggregate in the Cloud.
In 2003 Rubin founded Android with accomplice Rich Miner with the
ambition to actualize “…smarter adaptable accessories that are added
acquainted of its owner’s area and preferences.” In the aboriginal
phases of Android, Rubin kept it added backstairs than an Angel
absolution alone cogent humans they were alive on software for adaptable
phones.
In 2005 Google acquired Android and it’s employees, including Rubin who
backward on and became the Vice President of Engineering and the Android
lead. After the Android aggregation was in abode at Google the rumors
started bustling up everywhere but not that Google was alive on an
Operating System, but that they were alive on a phone.
It was no abstruse that Google saw things alive to adaptable and by
accepting in the adaptable amplitude they provided themselves with added
opportunities to serve the seek and commercial needs of consumers and
companies. The Android aggregation at Google developed an operating
arrangement based on the Linux Kernel.
Google began analytic out OEM and carrier ally for it’s new operating
system, all the while the media was confined up a aberration of abstract
belief about a Google branded or Google produced adaptable device.
Things came to a arch if in 2007 it was broadly appear that Google had
filed several patents all of which were in the adaptable space.
On November 5, 2007 the Accessible Handset Alliance appear it’s founding
as a bunch of OEM and carrier ally to advance accessible standards for
adaptable devices. It’s absorbing to agenda that T-Mobile and Sprint
Nextel were the alone carrier ally if the Accessible Handset Alliance
was formed.
T-Mobile was the aggregation that partnered with Andy Rubin’s antecedent
company, Danger, to absolution the hiptop, “Sidekick” which was the a
lot of accepted customer axial smartphones of it’s time. In the
aboriginal allotment of the decade Blackberry was even added geared for
business. It wasn’t until Blackberry appear the Pearl, and Curve curve
that they were perceived as for non business humans as well.
On October 22, 2008 T-Mobile appear the aboriginal Android accessory the
G1. There are currently over 180 accessories active some anatomy of
Android.
T-Mobile appear the chase up to the G1, appropriately called the G2.
Later this bounce they are accepted to absolution the G2X as able-bodied
as the new Sidekick 4G, this time active Android. It’s like a ancestor
getting reunited with his continued absent child.
