Communication is the core. Any product around it is big money. Deep pockets, a skilled design team and a “killer app” and perhaps a phone is not all that a bad idea. Consider this, there was another rumor rife at the Leipzig Games Convention that Sony Ericsson was planning a PlayStation based phone (PocketGamer) somewhere down the line.
With online advertising as the mainstay of its success, Google has a lot of options to play with to determining the price of the Gphone. Many feel that it will cost lesser than the iPhone, with perhaps similar features.
What often intrigues me is how the traditional mobile phone heavy weights are not at the center of these innovation flux. Did they never see these coming, a whole industry becoming a fundamental base for add on apps? As for a user, its indeed a rollicking time to own a phone. So with the limited speculation that is out there, would a GPhone interest you?

Erstes Google-Handy doch erst 2008?

Derzeit soll Google auf der Suche nach einem Hersteller für das Gphone sein, so das "WSJ". Der zu Reuters gehörende Branchendienst Anian berichtete letzten Monat, dass Google die taiwanesische Firma High Tech Computer Corp mit der Produktion eines Linux-basierten Handys beauftragt habe, das im ersten Quartal 2008 auf den Markt kommen soll.
Googles Spezifikationen sehen für das Handy eine Kamera für Fotos und Videos und eingebautes WLAN sowie Unterstützung für UMTS und GPS vor, so das "WSJ". Laut Bericht soll das Gphone erst 2008 auf den Markt kommen, einige Details des bisherigen Plans könnten sich demnach auch noch ändern.
