The fray to enter the mobile market had just begun it seems…
Barely a few days have passed since I posted about the Zune Phone which Microsoft is planning to debut later this year and here come rumors about the Google Phone which is supposedly a copy of the popular blackberry..
The Phone is believed to include services like VoIP,vector based presentation with Skia’s technology,optimised Java running on C++ core…
And to add the Google flavor to it the phone will have inbulit advertising support…
This phone certainly doesn’t seem an iPhone killer but certainly it could start the boom in mobile phone advertising that Google has been emphasising in the past few years as the next “BIG” thing .
Well only time will tell if this phone proves to a fortune reaper for Google or not…To read about the details check the source…

Microsoft’s Zune Phone:An iPhone competitor??
Its just been a few weeks since Apple Inc. announced their iPhone which will debut this year in the European countries and here comes Microsoft to counter it with their proposed Zune phone.
Though the details of the phone are yet to be known it seems like MS will have to do a much better job than the proposed iPhone if it has to make a mark in the mobile market.
Though the iPhone is a perfect dream gadget but it too has its shortcomings that need to be plugged and if MS can do that then it does have a chance to beat Apple in this new segment that both companies are looking forward to eagerly to boost their profits.
It certainly looks like Microsoft doesn’t want Apple to run away with the initiative like it did when it released its hugely popular iPod…the MP3 player that still rules the world.
MS which released its new operating system Vista after a gap of six years is strongly banking on it to deliver the goods that Windows XP did.
Vista, touted as the most secure windows platform till date will have a strong contender to deal with when Apple releases its Next-Gen OS Mac OS X Leopard this spring…
The rivalry continues……
