First off, WebKit, which leads the pack in Web standards compliance and could be the development pearl inside Chrome. There's a lot under the hood that should interest developers, too. Snydeq writes: "Users are not the only beneficiaries of the work that's gone into Chrome, Fatal Exception's Neil McAllister argues. 'Sound familiar? In this race, Apple is taking a page from Microsoft's book, while Google looks suspiciously like Linux.'"
'Based on raw market share alone, the iPhone seems likely to remain the smartphone developer's platform of choice - especially when ISVs can translate that market share into application sales,' McAllister writes. This openness is, of course, essential to Android's prospects.

'By just about any measure, Google's Android is more open and developer-friendly than the iPhone,' McAllister writes, noting Apple's gag order restrictions on documentation, proprietary software requirements to view training videos, and right to reject your finished app from the sole distribution channel for iPhone. Objective-C, used almost nowhere outside Apple, is required for iPhone UI development, while app-level Android programming is done in Java. And because most tasks can be performed with command-line tools, you can expert third parties to develop Android SDK plug-ins for other IDEs.

Whereas the iPhone requires an Intel-based Mac running OS X 10.5.4 or later, ADC membership, and familiarity with proprietary Mac OS X dev tools, the standard IDE for Android is Eclipse. Snydeq writes: "Fatal Exception's Neil McAllister delves into the Android and iPhone SDKs to help sort out which will be the best bet for developers now that technical details of the first Android smartphone have been announced.
Project developer Mike Wasserman offers a video demo of the technology here." 'That's probably an efficient way to identify contrasting shapes, but color response varies by camera and is heavily influenced by ambient light conditions.' Moreover, the detection routine soaked up 64 percent of McAllister's 1.6GHz Atom CPU, with the video from the Webcam soon developing a few seconds' lag that made controlling onscreen cursors challenging. 'For starters, its marker-location algorithm is very much keyed to color,' McAllister writes. Although McAllister was able to draw, scroll, and play a rudimentary game with his tomato, the SDK still has some kinks to work out. Net components that can be used to simulate the gestural interfaces of devices like the iPhone in thin air - using an ordinary USB Webcam.
