Shortly After the i-phone was released, rumors of a new, better 'g-phone' from google began circling.

Google put those rumors to bed with what i think is an incredible collaboration of industry giants. This 'open handset alliance' has started with the mission to create an open platform to allow development from any source that could feasibly be compatible with any phone.

This is one of the reason's i have always loathed Apple -- their proprietary nature in almost everything we do. Google has shown us what is possible when all sources of input are considered and i think this will be one more endevor where the big G succeeds.
