Google's Andy Rubin Talks About Android

Story posted on: June 18, 2008. Filed in: others.

Though there are plenty of videos and news of Google’s upcoming Android, it’s not often that they include Andy Rubin, Google’s Senior Director of Mobile Platforms.

Rubin demonstrated the non-touchscreen version of the platform, using a browser designed entirely for button-based navigation, as well as demonstrating the Android’s ability to multitask by using Google Maps seamlessly with a media player and photo app running in the background.

The hardware itself was still kept as a secret as usual, which is understandable, since that Android is designed to work on any phone with at least a 200MHz processor, and Google will be stressing the OS, (operating system) not so much the hardware.
