ARM to display Android platform powered mobile phone
ARM Ltd. has confirmed that they are going to showcase a Google Android platform powered mobile device at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
Google spokesman Barry Schnitt confirmed the news: “ARM will be demonstrating Android on an early prototype device to show how the platform works on their processor.”
The company added that several other companies are also expected to display some early prototypes of Android platform based mobile devices.
Market analyst Tim Bajarin spoke about ARM’s involvement in the project: “The key for Google will be to get not only carrier support, but also application support if this platform is to succeed. It is true that the ARM chip needs minimal support, but the support issues come in at the OS and apps level, and that always presents a challenge to companies that adopt it.”
