Those packing either a G1 or a new myTouch 3G and looking lustily upon iPhone, BlackBerry and Windows Mobile for their Pandora apps can retract the claws – Tom Conrad, an employee at the music discovery service, has announced that they’re working on an Android application. He’s pretty clear about Pandora’s eventual goal of getting their music onto every smartphone platform, and they’re doing pretty well so far; all that’s really missing now is Symbian, since it’s already out on webOS. It’s pretty funny that they’re working in Google’s mobile operating system, considering Tom said once upon a time that he “needs Android like a hole in the head”, though he has since repented. No word on a timeline, but certainly keep an eye on the Android Market for Pandora.
