What people are saying about the new Google phone:
"New iPhones are cheaper but come with a very expensive contract. Again, NotSoMuch for me. I’m thinking that October 22 I’ll get the Google phone and until then I’ll just use one of the many throw away phones we have around the house." (Female, 30s, Los Angeles)
"So here I was, all excited about Android. Not because the G1’s physical design is especially attractive. In fact, it’s a gray design with no soul. Not because of the user interface, which at first glance reminded me of a mash-up between the Nintendo DS and a ’90s Windows desktop manager. No, I was excited because this is the first post-iPhone smartphone that could be a serious challenger to Apple’s mounting dominance. Then I looked closely at this image and realized the G1 will not pose a threat to Apple at all." (MacBlender)
"The Google Phone, Tratner said, will review your previous conversations with your most frequently called numbers, along with your Internet search data, spending habits, and information about your credit rating, personal possessions, and sex life, and make calls, sounding just like you, to other people." [Satirical Blog] (Male, 50, California)
"The T-Mobile G1 Google GPhone Android Phone... thing. Lol Officially it is called T-Mobile G1, but it has been called the GPhone, the Google phone, or just G1, I think I'll be wavering between The Google Phone and The G1. Down to Google-y Business. Urgh, there is seriously SO much that is cool about this phone, don't be shocked if I miss out loads lol." (Male, 20s, UK.)
