Do you want to, believe, do not want, no, but Venture Beat alleges that Google has refused to support MultiTouch technology at the first Android Phone, HTC Dream G1, under pressure from Apple. Despite the fact that the Android platform supports this technology, Google has been forced to accept the proposal of Apple, fearing possible prosecution by the latter.
To be honest, HTC Dream G1 a good smartphone, but before the iPhone, it falls short. Not only that, he did not support the technology MultiTouch, he did not even have the 3,5 mm audio output, so that lovers of music is to do nothing! It turns out that in all this, as reported by an unnamed representative of the group of developers Android, just blame Apple. According to him, she "asked" Google did not implement this technology on the Dream G1, and the latter, strangely enough, agreed. How Apple "requested" no one knows or does not want us to tell, but we remember that, like Apple threatening to file for Palm to court after the latter submitted its latest smartphone Palm Pre.
While difficult to say whether or not that was actually, but the story to some extent explains why the iPhone has so far managed to hold on to first place among smartphones.
