Verizon Wireless and Google have announced a new partnership that will see a number of Android devices headed to the carrier in the near future.
The release says the companies plan to "co-develop" Android devices that will come "pre-loaded" with applications.
The first of the new Android phones should be available within a month, and a new Android-based device from Motorola is set for launch soon as well.
“This is a very big deal for us,” says Eric Schmidt, Google's CEO. “It is a major milestone in the development of Android as a platform.”
CDMA rival Sprint has also announced to upcoming release of an Android phone, with a release date this fall.
