WHY CHOOSE ANDROID?: THE PERKS OF A RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LITTLE GREEN ROBOT

It's no secret: Cedar Tree loves Android. We've made it the exclusive OS for our products, and we made that choice for a reason...Cedar and Android belong together!

We're adventurous; our products like to get outside, explore, even cross borders. They are unique individuals, customized for different industries and functions, yet still familiar enough to make most of the people with whom they work feel comfortable and at ease. They are open to trying new things, recognizing that innovative applications can come from unofficial, unexpected sources. And they like to share, doing their best to communicate clearly and openly with other devices from the office to the field and beyond. Happily, Android just happens to share our interests.

Check out this article from Business Insider: Tech and see if you're ready to go steady...with a new OS!
