Few people outside the developing companies of Google and HTC had any idea just how long the two companies have been working on their Android phone until HTC revealed exactly how much time has been invested in this phone. Their Chief Marketing Officer made mention of beginning talks with Google almost five years ago. That was before HTC had even acquired Android! The Android team has been working diligently for the past three years to create the G1, but all signs point to it being worth the wait. Plus, if it going like every other piece of technology has, once the initial Android phone is completed, the improvements and additions will take much less time.
According to regional HTC GM Kevin Chen, we can expect to see Windows Mobile 7 on devices in Q1 of 2009. HTC's current roadmap is to deliver a Windows Mobile 7 powered device by Q1 of 09'. Chen also confirmed the company is working on an
Android OS Google phone for Q4.
