Android had a pretty big day today. Hugo Barra, Android’s Director of Product Management, announced over Google+ that there are now over 500 million active Android devices globally, with over 1.3 million new activations per day!

That will change soon for over 100 Sprint markets, and since that’s too many for us to regurgitate, I’ll just post the official press release for you to look at. Cheers!.
