What is the difference between Google and the Open Handset Alliance?
Google is a member of the Open Handset Alliance. Google, after purchasing the original
developer of Android, released the operating system under the Open Handset Alliance.
Is Android capable of running any Linux software?
Not necessarily. While I am sure that there will be ways to get around most any open
source system, applications need to be compiled using the Android SDK to run on
Android. The main reason for this is that Android applications execute files in a specific
format; this will be discussed in later chapters.
