Android™ – what and why?
An Android™ phone is based on an open source platform, and is pre-loaded with Google™ services.

With the account, you can extend the functionality of the phone by downloading applications and games from a constantly growing collection at Android Market™. You need to have Internet access for many of the features in Android.

Google™ account
Use Gmail™ to send emails, Google Talk™ to chat with friends, and Android Market™ to download applications.
