Mobile phones designed around Google's Android software may not be available until the fourth quarter of this year, and some companies are struggling to even meet that deadline, the Wall Street Journal reported Sunday, citing unidentified sources.
When Google and 30 partners announced Android last November, the Internet search giant said new phones would be on the market by the second half of this year.
But the Journal reports that some mobile network operators, such as Sprint Nextel, have abandoned the idea of launching an Android-based handset this year due to delays. Other operators, such as China Mobile, have delayed their planned roll-out of Android-based handsets to later this year or early next year.
