T-Mobile To Launch Android Tablet
nandemoari writes "T-Mobile is planning to use Google's open source operating system 'Android' on devices that blur the line between cellphone and home PC. In addition, Samsung says they will also produce Android phones, but need to work out the kinks first. Both announcements come shortly after HP revealed that it is investigating the idea of using Android to power some of its low-cost netbook computers in place of Windows."
This from the same Google-TMO marriage that prohibits tethering? The same Google that can't keep your documents private, even when they want to? Does Android run MS Office? (Note, that's MS Office, not something-allegedly-compatible-with) TMO has shown promise in the past, and was the price/performance leader for years. But today, their pricing is at best, competitive, and typically worse than ATT, Verizon, and Sprint. While their VOIP implementation is pretty spiffy, the billing options aren't so groovy, and call handoff just doesn't work. They don't seem to want to keep their customers happy. I'll be passing, again.
