SAN FRANCISCO -- Sharp Corp. will offer mobile phones in Japan that run on Google Inc.'s Android operating system as early as the first half of next year, according to a company executive cited in a report Wednesday.
Nikkei reported that Sharp executive Masami Ohbatake made the announcement -- though he did not specify which carriers will offer the phones.
However, the report said, market leader NTT DoCoMo Inc. "is expected to be first in line."
DoCoMo currently offers a Google-based phone made by Taiwan's HTC Corp.
Sharp holds the largest mobile-phone market share in Japan, according to the report.
