A pleasant surprise though – Vodaphone and Verizon are jumping onboard with the Nexus one and will have plans available sometime spring 2010.  AWESOME.  <3 google.  Also, with Vodaphone – it seems pretty obvious that they’re planning on taking their market globally.

This and HTC’s Droid Eris phone for Verizon will be the first Android phones that Verizon will release on November 6th.  HTC’s Droid Eris looks almost exactly like their Hero with similar specs as well.  It also does not have Android 2.0 running on it, so I’m starting to wonder why Verizon is even bothering to release it with the Motorola.  In any case though, I’m extremely glad that Verizon has finally decided to release some Android phones.  Their regular phone software sucks and quite frankly, the selection of phones was pretty terrible.  Now I might actually want to shell out a few hundred bucks for a phone in the near future depending how these fair.

None of the manufacturers of the said phones were named, but this picture offers some insight on what they could possibly be.

If you check the original picture link here though, you can clearly see an HTC logo on the bottom of the phone that Eric Schmidt (CEO of Google) is holding.  On the right is what I expect to be whatever Motorola phone will be rolling out.  As a Verizon user, I am hugely excited over this news.  It may finally be time to get a new phone!

On a last note, when McAdam was questioned whether or not Google Voice would be allowed on their Android devices, he replied positively.  With this, AT&T is the only major carrier that doesn’t have any Android phones.

It does look pretty nifty from the images though.  A nice QWERTY keyboard, a 3.5” touchscreen, and a nice-looking interface makes me excited for what’s to come in the future.  I’m still eagerly awaiting for my Verizon androids, so this move by LG makes me very happy.

So recently at [Pocketables], there were a bunch of images released of an unidentified Android MID (Mobile Internet Device).  So far I haven’t been able to find any information on this device, aside from the pictures, but it looks like it will be pretty awesome.  Maybe this is a response to the [Apple Tablet] that was recently confirmed.

From the images provided, I wasn’t able to pick up any sort of logos or even buttons on the main screen.  The way it’s built though reminds us much of Apple’s style.

Pocketables points out that in this screenshot, you can make out the words “SD Card and Phone Storage.”  This looks very promising.

Frankly I’m quite excited to see who comes forward to claim this as their own.  I want to learn more about what’s inside!  I’ll be keeping an eye out for more updates on this little device.
