Android,无处不在,无处

迈克尔·谭CNET的亚洲认为,在Android不久被用于MIPS,会有绿色的小机器人无处不在。毕竟,MIPS CPU无处不在在消费电子设备,从机顶盒到经典pda游戏机。然而,有Android-capable CPU只是故事的一部分——一个重要组成部分,但仍然远离一切需要,特别是如果你向后寻找硬件转发。期待意味着寻找未来的MIPS设备集成安卓环境。在这个领域,我相信谭先生可能是正确的。许多MIPS设备已经有内存和存储容量足够的Android。如果简单的Android模块可以落入这样的消费电子设备,剩下的最大的挑战将是驱动程序显示等。和期待,我们可以看到Android的天才模式的一部分。Android市场引导开发人员对认为用户授权应用程序“生活流”,不是个人为个人设备版本。通常可以提供互联网连接和有限的车载存储引导开发人员对把数据“在云中”。 Now, if households have multiple Android devices, they can all have the same apps with the same data -- you choose which device you want to use based on where you are and what you want to do, not based upon what's installed and what data is loaded. At the same time, though, Mr. Tan hints at retrofitting older hardware, such as game consoles, to run Android. For some devices, the technical requirements of Android, in terms of RAM and storage, may preclude such ports. The bigger problem is the predilection in the consumer electronics industry to keep devices locked down, unable to adopt new operating systems. If you cannot flash-upgrade a device with unsigned code, you will have great difficulty getting Android to run on that device. It is this area of openness that I was hoping Android would help deliver: the ability to repurpose hardware as needed over time. Alas, HTC locked down the T-Mobile G1, setting a precedent that may steer device manufacturers towards “business as usual”. I am still holding out hope that some manufacturer, perhaps one with an eye towards openness (某些技术?)会释放一些android设备被设计成砍,,创新开发人员创建引人注目的黑客在这些平台上。Android-on-MIPS是一大进步。它不是那么大倒退。
