Discover what you can do with the Android™ platform!

And it's bringing to life some of 2010's greatest mobiles too, from the gorgeous HTC Desire to the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 - and the X10's shrunken siblings, the Mini and Mini Pro.

You'll also find it aboard the Dell™ Streak, a brand-new tablet computer, that also makes phone calls, with a stunning 5" screen.

We all use Google products every single day, from Google Search™ to find out information, Google Maps™ to find out where we going, and Gmail to find out who's sent us a message.

What Android does so skilfully is bring all of those features together into a platform that is simple to use and understand.

Apps make whatever Android phone you buy, instantly customisable in so many ways.

You can have a number of home screens, each filled with apps of different types. So a screen for music and movies, one for work, another for games and finally one for whatever you fancy including social networks. There are apps for Twitter and Facebook as well as the likes of Flickr, RSS news feeds and instant messaging.

The number of homescreens will depend on your phone but most Android devices have more than one. You normally just flick between them by swiping your finger from right to left on the display.

Android also brings to life Google Maps, giving you the chance to flip straight into the amazing Street View where you can see panoramic images of the houses, buildings or landmarks as if you were standing on the road yourself. There's also free turn-by-turn navigation.

The platform is also powerful for business users too. You can check your email, browse the internet and store all your contacts. Google Calendar™ also allows you to run multiple diaries and sync them to the web and your computer.

There's never been a better time to be interested in Android as most major manufacturers have a device on the platform. There really is something for everyone. Take a look at our latest Android smartphones to see what's on offer, or find out more about Android and Market apps.
