I have few questions about Google Android.

1 When will it be launched? Will The Indian launch be simultaneous.
2 If it is Open Source will phones running Android be cheaper then Symbians?
3 What can be the rates of cheapest Android Phones and will the apps for it be as diverse as for windows.

1. No idea.

2. No. The price will depend on the manufacturer making the phone and the features present in the phone.

3. Again depends upon the manufacturer and features.

The news is all over the web. Though HTC has not officially confirmed that the May 6 event will be a Android based mobile launch, industry insiders are sure that it will be.
