What makes Android Tick?


In 2007, people began to circulate rumors that the Google company would introduce a smartphone to compete with Apple's iPhone. Hypothesis ran rampant -- would Google get into the hardware enterprise? Would the corporate rely on established cell phone manufacturers for hardware? Would Google simply concentrate on building smartphone purposes for different devices just like the iPhone?
