Google’s logo (above) is today celebrating the birth of Isaac Newton, born on this day in 1642. But could it also be a swipe at Apple? Google is scheduled to announce its new “Nexus One” telephone tomorrow, and the falling apple in this animated logo could symbolize what Google hopes will happen to its competitor from Cupertino.
In any case, the Google phone will be a serious contender for the growing smartphone market, and its immediate competition is the iPhone. We’ll see tomorrow what the Nexus One offers, and whether it will take a bite out of Apple’s market share.
