Google Reveals More Platform Details

I'm reminded of this:

and I think: those Google guys really get it. Those in the phone industry have tended to focus so much on the phones/networks/hardware themselves, while Google is using software to shift the ethos of the whole industry.

Pretty dang brilliant.

I'm hoping that this will have a huge impact on the mobile industry that we need. This software alliance should compliment the pressure that the iPhone put on the carriers to truely provide us with a product that we want and that will be useful for our daily lives.

Between these two events(iPhone and Goog platform) I can imagine the carriers getting back to being service providers in the telecom industry and no longer having a huge control of the content on our mobile devices.
