Android heading to become world's most used OS software

Just like how Microsoft Windows has dominated PC OS market, Google's Android is heading to such a position in mobile OS market. Imagine you get a 3G touch smart phone with Wi-Fi interface on a Android platform for approximate price $150(Rupees 6600), the model what this writer referring to is Micromax A60, also called Andro 60 (learn more at www.myfirstandroid.com). It is not as sophisticated as 500$ price ranged iphones and berrys, but really worth its price. This phone is manufactured by ZTE, world's fifth mobile phone maker in the world.

There is no wonder if Micromax and any such companies could bring to market a new tablet computer for a price of 200US$ with in 2011. It's mostly going to happen. What is driving this is the availability of open source OS like Android. The support and application availability for Android is far better than any other proprietary OS in the market.

When an OS appeals to bigger global crowd, where major population is from emerging economies like India and China, there can be little doubt about it scaling to the highest peak.
