Android coming to Verizon soon
Posted October 6, 2009
I should have a section on my blog called “Patrick’s search for a new phone.” Before it was the Blackberry Storm but that turned out to be the biggest bust (good thing I didn’t get it). Then the Palm Pre came along, but I have to wait for it to come to Verizon. Then there was the Tour, but it turns out I was still on contract. Also, the keyboard just didn’t feel right. Of course there is the upcoming Blackberry Storm 2 which I’m hesitant about. Lately I’ve been enjoying Google voice a lot more. A friend came into my office the other day and told me something that convinced me that I should go all Google voice… free text messaging.
So today, Verizon and Google announce that they will be launching some Android phones on Verizon. Finally! Why Android? Android phones allow you to use Google voice automatically. If I do decide to go this way, everyone might be getting a text or email from me telling you my new number. Yes, Google is taking over the world.
