ARM Ltd. will demonstrate Google Inc.’s Android on an early prototype device at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona this week, one of several demonstrations of the mobile platform that will occur at the conference…

“ARM will be demonstrating Android on an early prototype device to show how the platform works on their processor,” Google spokesman Barry Schnitt said in an e-mail. “There are a number of other companies that will be demonstrating Android on their hardware in various forms at Mobile World Congress.” He would not name the others, however.

It is logical for ARM to be developing in the Android area, since it designs Linux-based CPUs for mobile phones, as well as CPUs based on other types of operating systems. ARM is the predominant CPU platform for mobile phones globally.
