Take cover! The Google Android phone is coming! If the reports are right, it’s going to be priced $199 and offered through T-mobile. Now there is no question that the first phone is not going to be the iPhone killer just like Chrome is not a Firefox killer, but Google is the most innovative company in the world bar none. There is no company with this pedigree that has challenged Apple, and it will be an interesting challenge for both companies. Maybe iPhoners and Androids can co-exist. Who knows…

So we have heard all companies that have tried to kill the iPod or the iPhone or both. Microsoft is one of many which has tried and failed to put any dents in Apple’s drive to dominate the MP3 and phone markets. So has Nokia in a sense (though we should give Nokia their dues as they are still one of the most innovative companies out there). But The real challenge to Apple’s dominance in the phone market will come from, Google!

It’s really not rocket science. If you look at all the companies that have taken on Apple, Google would be the one likely to threaten Apple the most. Google and Apple are probably the two most innovative companies around the world, and let’s not forget the world domination plan that Google has. Android looks more promising than anything I have seen from those other companies in the mobile industry, so it’d be very interesting to find out how Google Android will affect Apple’s drive to the top of the mobile phone industry. But the mobile industry has some exciting time ahead, and I think we consumers will be winner as a result of all these intriguing upcoming competitions.

It was always going to be inevitable. Google is super ambitious and is aiming to achieve world domination. Apple is perhaps the most innovative tech company next to Google. Now with iPhone gaining momentum and Google entering the market with its android platform, it is going to be interesting to see who wins the battle of SDKs. Google thinks that it is winning the battle as they claim Google android allows developers to do more things that iPhone SDK.

To be honest, Google has been great at using open techniques to get domination in some markets, but going against Apple will be truly interesting as I believed both companies to be pretty much on the same side of battle against the Microsofts of this world. It will be interesting to see how Apple responds to Google claims!
