Up to a Dozen Prototypes Expected at MWC

Next week will be the coming out party for Android. With roughly 100 days passed since the announcement of Android and the Open Handset Alliance, things have come together rather quickly for some. So who will be showing off their wares? You can expect to see plenty of players in the OHA rolling in to town to give consumers a glimpse at their 2008 products and services.

Handset manufacturers High Tech Computer Corp.(HTC), LG Electronics Inc., Motorola Inc., and Samsung are all confirmed. We're also going to see chip makers Intel Corp. Broadcom Corp., and Qualcomm Inc. For the most part, the entire OHA will out representing in some form or another!

According to CNN Money, it is expected that up to 12 prototypes for Android will be shown at MWC. And here's your final takeaway class... Just because you're not part of the alliance, you're not prohibited from making phones capable of running Android. Watch for ARM's design next week and see what we mean.
