Earlier this year, Motorola said it would focus heavily on Google Android, the open-source mobile operating system, in a bid to stem the tide of poor device sales and slumping revenue. Motorola's Android play is an effort to recapture the luster the Schaumburg, Ill.-based company held in the early 2000s when the Motorola Razr cell phone took the handset market by storm and sold record numbers.

Interesting.....Google Android has a great future with T-Mobile.

Motorola rival HTC has been nothing short of an Android powerhouse. The Taiwanese device maker that once sat in the background as an OEM for North American carriers has staked claim to Android in the U.S., churning out a handful of hot smartphones with Google guts, including the T-Mobile G1, the T-Mobile myTouch 3G and the upcoming HTC Hero, which will land on Sprint (NYSE:S)'s network next month. Globally, HTC has several more Android-based devices either available or on the way, including the HTC Tattoo, which is expected to launch in Europe next month and in other locations later.
