Here’s a demo of Google Android, where Skypop CEO Bruce Leak and CTO Timo Bruck have already made some headway. The two Silicon Valley developers compare the new platform to a tricorder sensing device from Star Trek , but instead of scanning for environmental conditions, medical symptoms and lifeforms like the tricorder, they’ve already started putting together cellphone applications that can find your friends out in the ether. These guys are already starting to create some creative games, too, all while the CEO wears shorts and works out a lot. Must be nice. Now we want to know what they’re really up to. [YouTube]
