The
Wall Street Journal today cited delays in the delivery of Android-based mobile phones due mostly to the carriers themsleves. But some of the issues relate to changes that Google is making to the code while it puts the finishings touches to the final release. Two LBS applications developers,
Buzzd and the
Weather Channel Interactive, were mentioned as running into problems. Nihal Mehta from Buzzd said that since there weren't any Android phones on the market that it was difficult to test their software. Louis Gump from the Weather Channel had basically good things to say about Android but that because of the revisions that Google was making that there would be some rewrites to his code that would have to be made.
