We don’t have any type of official timeframe, manufacturers, devices or any other details, today marks the first time Verizon Wireless has gone on record saying they WILL produce an Android Phone. Verizon Wireless customers are now free to rejoice – you may have to wait but if you didn’t hear me (can you hear me now?) Verizon has admitted gone on the record as saying they will be carrying Android Devices.
Hmm… “Devices”? I don’t want to read into that but looks like the options are open. This official word comes from a Wall Street Journal article that also mentions the Palm Pre will come to Verizon Wireless within the next 6 months or so. That’s a HUGE ouch for Sprint as I can see Verizon Wireless customers staying put after hearing something like that – if they had thought about getting the Pre that is.
But back to Android.
There is already one Android Phone rumored for Verizon Wireless – the Motorola Calgary which was first leaked in December. Could this phone be headed to Verizon Wireless before the year is over? Lets hope so…
