Flash 10.1 for Android beta unveiled: Hulu a no-show, Froyo

What was once just one echelon above a myth is now finally coming to fruition. Adobe is pushing out a beta of its Flash 10.1

Senh: Take that Apple. Pretty soon the iPhone's lack of support for Flash will be one of its drawbacks. Love it or hate it, Flash is all over the web. Not supporting it is not supporting the full web, and forcing everyone to redesign their sites just so it'll look right for the iPhone and iPad.

Google beats Microsoft in smartphones, catching Apple

Google's Android mobile phone system is building momentum, beating Microsoft in the last quarter and challenging Apple as the number of new models with software and compatible applications grow.

Senh: Android's catching up because it seems like very other week, there's a new Android phone being launched. There's only one iPhone.

Should You Buy the EVO? Pros and Cons of the Next Big Android Phone

Forget the Nexus One, Google's failed attempt at marketing its own "iPhone killer" via the web - the next big "Google Phone" is definitely going to be HTC's EVO, the first 4G Android smartphone to hit the U.S.

Arriving June 4th on Sprint, the EVO comes with a loaded spec sheet that includes everything you could possibly want in a smartphone and then some: 4G, a built-in mobile hotspot, dual cameras, HDMI output, FM tuner and more.

 

How Android Phones Became a Hit

Android's rise is remarkable for a young OS; here's how it happened and what's next for Google's smartphone entry.

Senh: Impressive indeed. Google kept Android completely open. Any carrier can use their operating system; anyone can create and launch an Android app without getting approval; and its browser supports Flash. Still, I see more people with iPhones than Android devices.

HTC EVO 4G $200, On Sale June 4th

Sprint's first 4G smartphone, the EVO 4G, will go on sale on June 4th for $200 after a mail-in rebate (the full price is $450, but if you grab one from Best Buy, you'll get the discount applied when you buy). The Android-powered WiMAX ...

Senh: Looks just like the HD2, except with a better camera and operating system (Android). The only negative is that Sprint will be charging a monthly fee for tethering or using your device as a wifi hotspot, which you can currently get for FREE on Windows Mobile 6.5. If you think you're gonna be using this feature often, then I would stick with the HD2. Although tethering/wifi-hotspot is nice, I find that I actually don't use it much. Most of the time, I only use it as a backup in case my internet access goes down.
