There has been industry speculation that Finnish phone maker Nokia might be interested in Google’s Android smartphone platform since Android was first announced, although there has never been any concrete evidence that Nokia, which is heavily invested in the Symbian platform, has ever given any serious thought to Android. Now, the British news daily The Guardian reported that Nokia is working on an Android-based smartphone to be unveiled at the Nokia World conference in September; according to the report, Nokia is looking to Android as a way to regain market share in the smartphone arena, where it is seeing serious competition from the likes of RIM and Apple.
