BenQ to Develop Android Smartphone
IntoMobile - Cell Phone News, Information, and Analysis —
BenQ, who has traditionally stuck to Windows Mobile for their higher-end phones, will be climbing aboard the Android bus soon.

BenQ makes decent-looking phones, so at very least we can expect an attractive package for their Android phone.
