New T-Mobile devices run on Android

T-Mobile plans to launch a series of communication devices that will use Google's new Android operating software, reports the New York Times.

The paper stated, there were confidential documents that T-Mobile was aiming at selling a home phone running on Android in the beginning of the next year and a tablet computer later.

Company spokesman, Peter Dobrow, did not disclose any particular products, although he confirmed plans for devices based on Android, continued the paper.

Google’s Android operating system handles basic functions for mobile devices. The system is already run on a T-Mobile cell phone.

It was said that the value of mobile commerce transacted via non-NFC methods - SMS, Internet and applications - will reach the amount of $1.6 billion in 2009. Meantime contactless mobile commerce will be "minimal".
