A look at Google Android vs Apple IOS vs Nokia Memo Vs Microsoft Windows Phone 7, part 1

Its been a while I know, but its good to be back writing again, anyways its 2.26am I am siting on my bed, my vision is blured ( I actually have to squint to see the letters I have typed) and I'm thinking to myself I really need to get to sleep, but alas, before I retire for the night morning. I will write a little on the tittle of this post.

These are awesome and super interesting times for I.T in general and certain areas in I.T in particular, driven by the success of smartphones ( Iphone, Iphone and the Iphone...did I mention the Iphone?) and arguably social media  (which mobile devices make readily available) mobile technologies have exploded unto the scene and platforms have being created by the big players in the software and  mobile device markets. This has set the stage for a showdown of epic proportions!! The next few years will be very interesting and it will be very interesting to see who will forge alliances with who and which platforms will eventually be widely accepted by all.. or at least most mobile device manufacturers and consumers.

The next set of posts will examine mobile platforms which in my opinion are/will be the biggest and influential in the next couple of years and will attempt to postulate on the shape of things to come in the land of mobile applications and OS'es.

It should be fun... I start tomorrow, right now I need rest....
