This week at MWC, Google CEO Eric Schmidt proudly proclaimed that Android handsets are being shipped at the rate of 60,000 per day worldwide. That is a blistering pace of over 1.8 million handsets per month and over 21.8 million handsets per year. Schmidt did not indicate whether the recipient of a “shipped” handset was an end-user or a retailer; however, the number is impressive either way. As handset manufacturers continue to embrace Android and re-focus on hardware production this number is sure to climb even higher.

      It’s not surprising. The Moto Droid had a much bigger and better marketing plan and budget.

      If Google had done the same I think the N1 would have eclipsed the Droid sales very quickly.

    There’s an impressive amount of shipment statistics relating to Android. It does sound very promising and a big contender. I hope it lives up to its expectations!
