Needham & Company analyst Charlie Wolf believes that the iPhone could emerge as the big survivor as Android and Windows 7 phone battle it out in a race to the bottom. Wolf expects that Google and Microsoft will be vigorously fight to keep telephone building devices with their respective platforms software manufacturers and manufacturers will likely be slash prices to try to obtain market share. The result is supposed to be significantly reduced margins for everyone but Apple. This could mean a scenario similar to market computer where computers Windows product hold the majority of the market, Apple uses its highly polished products far remain the most profitable computer manufacturer.

A new note research investors, Wolf said that the launch of the new Microsoft OS phone succeeded despite what appears to be sales very slow after less than two months on the market. According to Wolf had 135,000 active users of the application Windows phone 7 Facebook, where he sees a flag in the absence of a real number from Microsoft sales. Wolf provides Windows to grow due to spending a substantial amount of 500 million budget to keep telephone manufacturers and developers in the Microsoft marketing fold phone numbers.

Android is buzzing with 300,000 activations now, one day, he should take a hit if and when the iPhone arrives on the Verizon network. However, that Wolf is really answer is how AT & T respond to lose Apple exclusivity. It is possible that it will be thrust behind the rival systems, helping them to increase their share at the expense of some cost-effectiveness for manufacturers and developers of the OS.

NEXUS S Aims To Advance Android, iPhone not fighting (NewsFactor) (Yahoo!)

So there was an iPhone there phones presented as potential iPhone killers. Nexus One, manufactured by HTC and released with great fanfare by Google in January, has been one of the first in the ring against champion smartphone Apple. But almost a year later, the first brand of Google phone is market with iPhone stronger than ever.

Now just S Nexus candidate more recent Google, a new manufacturer, Samsung and running the latest Android - smartphone only current use OS gingerbread - 2.3 and new iPhone killer speaks began. "Is Nemesis of the Nexus iPhone?" asks a title in the London Telegraph.

Phone unveiled the month last Google CEO Eric Schmidt, the Web 2.0 Summit and will be available to the T-Mobile United States and retail stores beginning December 16 and in the UK on 20 December.

Light curve and Fast

A variant of Galaxy Samsung S which are available on all major carriers devices, super AMOLED screen MultiTouch four inches S Nexus is bigger than iPhone 4 display of 3.5 inches. S Nexus is also slightly more light to 4.8 4.5 ounces and has a profile back designed to adapt easily to hand. Two smartphones have cameras and front and rear, and an ARM Cortex A8 processor. Neither has a physical keyboard.

While the Android phones collectively gave Apple a run for his money - Google boasts 300,000 Android phones are daily - enabled devices however attractive, individual, were not measured the challenge, said Alex Spektor from Strategy Analytics.

"S nexus as a nexus, will be a very low volume designed device to be a showcase for technology to push out the latest versions of Android first,", said the Spektor. "Before that you can get the hottest version on a Motorola or HTC phone, get you a phone Nexus." It is to early adopters and lovers of technology, which is a segment fairly low volume, so it will not be a killer of the iPhone in any way. »

Live the Maker

Spektor has added Google plan with phones Nexus is to help promote brand Android in the whole of the ecosystem and generate buzz. "It also allows developers to get their hands on it at the outset so that they can get their requests for ready for a mass market" said Spektor.

Android was developed to allow the telephones in competition with the mimics its interactive touch-screen iPhone. "What they did was set the next generation of user experience after the iPhone," he said. "In the eyes of consumers, the iPhone was considered a cue point, and when it came out all Windows phones, RIM phones and phones Symbian conducting volume began to feel the impact".

But because Apple does licensed its operating system to other manufacturers, the only choices for competitors should make their own operating system or to adopt free software from Google.

"Android given device providers the ability to bring a touch interface similar to their phones, usability" said Spektor. "To design their own would be too costly and time-consuming."

There are all sorts of buzz yesterday regarding request for Google it is enabling new Android devices at a rate of 300 000 per day. But someone calls shenanigans that.

That someone is Frost and Sullivan analyst Michael Jude. Although Google VP Andy Rubin said "activations" 300,000 were happening every day, Jude said that number "can represent the number of phones shipped to manufacturers, many end up in warehouses, rather than into the pockets of the people."

I guess the word "activation" could simply mean that a device is packed and ready for use, which means that he left the Assembly line. But most people would consider actually reach the end user and is connected to the service.

Jude was no solid evidence to rebuke claim Rubin, but he is skeptical, because only a few months ago Google was only "activation" approximately 200,000 devices Android, much less that it claims to do it now.

Of course, Android powered now much more than smartphones. It is used in Nook e-reader Barnes & noble, tab Galaxy Samsung, TV on Sony's, decoder reviewed Logitech and a bunch of things.

Regardless, Android is doing well. No one can deny that.
