HTC Lancaster (credit: Engadget Mobile)

Reading CNET this morning, they have a snippet on the new HTC Android phone that may be launched later this year, they call it the Lancaster.

Like the HTC Dream, this model comes with a slide-out keyboard, though the front looks similar to the design of the newer HTC Magic.
According to the specifications, it will come with HSDPA connectivity, Bluetooth, and a 3-megapixel camera, though rumour is that the display functionality is lacking, I hope this is not the case, as it would put it further behind the Iphone

Also, for those who have seen any details around the HTC Hero device, this phone hopes to have some of the social media capability.

I am sure we will see many more Android devices this year, which will hopefully boost Android as an OS for mobile devices.

After seeing a twitter post come up on my screen about google mapping the universe, I had to click and see what the fuss was about.

I was extremely impressed to find that google had used their Android mobile platform and the use of the compass, level, and GPS to create a program called Skymap (search for it on the android app market)

This lets you point your phone at the sky and using the data of location, level, and bearing it will tell you what constellations you are looking at…Now everyone can be an astronomer!
