At a San Francisco event in San Francisco event, where Google and T-Mobile USA unveiled the new Android-based handset - MyTouch 3G -, Google, VP of mobile engineering platforms, Andy Rubin, said that Android will not be ostracized by the emerging Google Chrome operating system.

Saying that Chrome OS and mobile device operating systems have specialized jobs that other platforms lack - like running network protocol stacks, vigilantly managing battery life and handling handoffs among cell towers - Rubin said: "There's different problems to be solved in different categories of consumer products. But that doesn't mean that one wins and one doesn't win. You need different technologies for different solutions."

Elaborating further, Rubin added that the Google's product development approach is so planned that it does not imply that the seemingly "overlapping" projects are not essentially scampered to shield the one that was released earlier.

While the Android has been the pioneer operating system for the smartphone, and is found on products like the new MyTouch, the older G1, and others; the Chrome OS would be first arriving on netbooks, when it is scheduled to be geared up in the second half of 2010.

Meanwhile, Cole Brodman - T-Mobile's Chief Technology Officer - has said that with the launch of MyTouch, its second Android-based phone, the carrier is aiming at retaining its dominance in the Android phone arena.
