Aside from the Android test platform we saw earlier this week, Texas Instruments has its Android development platform up and running and expects to be in a position to start shipping to developers -- yeah you, the programmers that will make our dreams come true -- in the next two months. Running TI's OMAP 3430 CPU at 600 Mhz, video output at 720p, a big ugly black housing, and it will apparently ring in for under a grand. Check the rest of the pics in the gallery.

Wow. Is it me or do other people find it odd that the word OMAP does not refer to another crappy 200MHz processor.

I *TOTALLY* want a phone with ports like that! DVI, Ethernet, hook a keyboard up, and who needs a laptop? Seriously, smartphones these days are getting to the point where they're as powerful as laptops about 8 years ago...

I saw the Android demo at 6 different place at MWC, all 6 had different versions running. I hope we don't end up back in the LiMo/J2ME world. We need a common development platform like BREW.
