Here's Everything Google Announced At Today's Android Event
• popsci.comWhile we in New York cower behind cans of overpriced and underflavored Amy's Soup, those spoiled techies out in Mountain View, California--the location of Google headquarters--announced a whole mess of new Android stuff today. Here's what you need to know.
