Your Google Android info is misleading. Android itself was not
delayed. Only the release of a line of phones by HTC I believe. So
it wouldn’t compete with another phone they just released. I
believe July 23 is the release date for first Android phone still.
If you find this info to be incorrect please tell me who told you
this. Thanks, Travis
