This morning Verizon and Google held a joint press conference call announcing a new joint venture between both companies culminating in the release of two new Android devices in the Motorola Tao and the HTC Hero.
The Hero will launch in November while the Motorola Tao will launch on October 30th according to a leaked internal release calendar from last Friday, which correctly listed the release date for the HTC Imagio.
Man! Verizon is doing awesome in the new phone business. I thought sprint was the only company that was going to have the hero for the first 6 months. Good for verizon. I hope they don’t cripple the phones and leave them just as the phone come.

This is just the beginnng, I believe we are at the eve of the dawn of a new era, the next generation of sweeping industry wide competetive changes, which will at last, start benefiting the consumers.
Thank You
