Title: New Google Phone
Post by: Adi on Sep 20, 2008, 07:19: AM

Anyone else hear about the new Google phone that's coming out soon? It will be released in New York next week and in the UK in one month.

Search Google and you'll see some pictures. I'm not really sure what pictures are right. There seem to be a bunch of different ones floating around.

From what I hear, this phone is going to give the Apple iPhone a lot of competition. Some say it's way better. :saywhat:

Maybe that? If so, it looks ugly, and I prefer my phone, but it sounds cool.

Have you heard about the new Samsung phone? It looks similar to the iPhone.

That's not the Google Phone, that's HTC P4350, a PDA.

Quoted for the truth. That phone there is an older phone made by HTC (I believe). The newest HTC phones are CRUISE and DIAMOND.

I don't see Google making a phone.... maybe co-create one with a manufacturer (Samsung, Nokia, HTC, Motorola etc).

Are you talking about the Samsung Instinct Borg?

They are teaming up with HTC. I've use the HTC and it's now. I'm sure this one will be even better with Google adding their goodies to it.

Here is an image of the phone:

Can't find anything about the google phone on wiki  :dontknow:

Judging by the photos Adi posted I'm pretty sure it's going to be a SICK phone. HTC just need to better their call quality and the graphic treats (cube etc).... I'm currently using the HTC Touch - love it, but it could be better....and as far as I'm concerned I'm not up to getting an iPhone like EVERYONE else haha.
