When I had heard about the Windows first I could not even understand what does it mean and why is named that way but eventually things changed and today we are here using Windows extensively and even a school boy will tell you what does it mean.

Later on with times we I was just getting used to windows using my P4 and then on my laptop I heard of phones with such advanced technologies.

Then came Blackberry which was excluisvely for business purpose.Then the Android overtook the iPhone in 2010 to become the most popular smartphone platform in the U.S. and the third-most popular handset (behind Symbian and BlackBerry) in the world.

As Google continues to build out the Android Marketplace, and as it pushes both Android and Chrome into a variety of non-PC devices, Android looks like a good bet to be the Windows of the mobile world.

However, operating systems in general will become much less important over time. One of the major changes ushered in by smartphones is the importance of the app. In the next couple of years, devices will emerge that will be, essentially, limited-purpose app delivery devices. That’s pretty much what a Kindle is, after all, a connected device with a very specific function.

Android is well positioned to be the Windows of the post-PC era, but the real winners will be the developers of apps, like Facebook or game makers like Angry Birds, that people can’t live without.

A day will come when our kids will learn using an app before they learn to write!!


Life was simpler when Apple and blackberry were still fruits!!

very true, thank u
But my Question to all would be, Does Google really project "open-ness"?

Google has chosen to withhold the development source code of Honeycomb & is made available to only OEMs. which calls into question the "open-ness" of this Android release.
However Google answers- The source code will be released for Honeycomb in the near future. The reason for delay, according to Rubin in an official android blog post, was because Honeycomb was rushed for production of the Motorola Xoom and that when Honeycomb is suitable for developer use is then when it will be released. That means to say Motorolla xoom is not running on suitable OS (Hard to believe!), LG Optimus tablet is also running on Honeycomb, similarly many other OEM devices then how do they say the OS is not suitable for release.( something fishy!!)
Android has the world like a massive Tsunami and with every passing day its appeal keeps getting stronger. More over Phone/Tablet users are not complaining, they are busy enjoying the ride".
A recent IDC report claims that Android is the only OS, Which has registered positive growth.Android OS is activating close to 200,000 devices everyday!

The increasing trend of accessing Internet on a mobile device and  Google's considerable presence in web based apps like MAPS, Google Voice gave the way for Android, in addition to that it's collaboration with hardware manufacturers like Motorola, HTC (who were desperate to overcome competition from Apple & Blackberry) laid the right platform for the Android Growth.

These companies had to just concentrate on hardware (which got a boost with high speed & multi-core processors from TI, Samsung, Nvidia etc) & software for their devices while Google gave them OS ready with thousands of Apps to download from Android Market & try on these devices. Literally Users went crazy!!

Now with tablet ready OS, Honeycomb launched...The Android Mania will just multiply.

Well it is not possible. because there are other system that are equally acceptable as android. also this system is available in very few devices of very high range. while windows is in almost every person use and is available in cheap devices like in china phones also. and we know china product had make a market in india.

Very true. The wide acceptability will force towards innovations.  
I feel in future a smartphone should remain only for accessing the apps/utils.  The processing prower and display size should be used only as interface. A cloud way.  We know faster connectivity will not be an issue in future.  So handheld devices should act moreover as dumb terminals and immune to OS.

The strategy adopted by Android to get into a new launched devices is supported by the fact that, usage of Non-PC devices have increased a lot. People are increasingly moving towards Non PC computing and as the usage is for PC is still higher for Browsing and E-Mailing, the devices like Blackberry, I-Phone, I-Pad, Galaxy Tab etc. gives a much better experience and ease in mobility. 

Again the application store and attractive UI and open SDK makes android enabled devices feature rich.
