Gary Marshall: Why Android 2.0 is going to be a very big deal
Techradar - All the latest technology news — When Google announced turn-by-turn navigation for its Android operating system last week, the executives of sat-nav firms had to be talked down from high windowsills. But the tech isn't just bad news for sat-nav manufacturers. It's a sign of the coming Android invasion. Version 1 of Android was pretty good, but - crucially - it wasn't good enough to live up to the hype surrounding it. Android, it seemed, would kill the iPhone, monster Windows Mobile, cure cancer and bring your ancestors back from the dead. No handset could possibly live up to that hype, and the T-Mobile G1 didn't. Don't get us wrong, the G1 is a good phone - we gave it four and a half stars out of five and called it a "top ...

Bookstore sued over new Android e-book
Techradar - All the latest technology news — US bookstore Barnes & Noble's new e-book reader - the Nook - is under threat after a rival hardware developer claimed that the design was poached. The Nook uses a dual screen approach to e-book display, with the lower half of the device a capacitive LCD using an Android interface and the upper half a 'normal' e-book display. But Spring Design launched a device - the Alex - with a similar layout the day before the Nook - although it has a larger lower screen that sends internet pages up to the e-ink screen for low battery reading. Infringing Spring Design has said that Barnes & Noble's device infringes on its patents, and claims that the two companies were engaged in ...

In Depth: Complete guide to buying an Android handset
Techradar - All the latest technology news — Have you been wondering whether to buy an Android handset? Now's the time to go for it. Android handsets remain dominated by HTC, but this is rapidly changing, with Motorola and Samsung among those getting in on the act and more phones on the way from Sony Ericsson, Acer and more.

Why Android 2.0 is going to be a very big deal So, in no particular order, here's our guide to buying an Android handset. When looking for deals, make sure you have at least some form of "unlimited" ...
