Google has a new team in Taiwan, set to support handset makers in the country in the process of integrating Android on their devices. HTC is headquartered in Taiwan and providing them with additional “on site” technical support is never a bad thing in order to produce devices that work as best as possible.
However, according to Google Taiwan’s Chien Lee-feng, the search giant will help manufacturers support other products — not just mobile phones — as well. He mentioned netbooks and embedded systems! Android on a netbook is a great idea, and especially if it’s powered by Snapdragon or some other similar CPU, it can have a promising future, don’t you think?
Anyway, it’s very early to predict what will come out of Google Taiwan’s Android office, but we’re hoping to see more devices running Google’s mobile OS this year. HTC are you reading this?

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
