The "Google phone" - and since it's no longer called to be more accurate - the HTC T-Mobile G1 has begun shipping. The device is, of course, the first official device running on the Android platform. There were reports of about one million of the handsets that were on pre order so now it’s time for those individuals to pay the piper, so to speak. The handset incorporates a 3.2-inch TFT touch screen with a slide out QWERTY keypad. It is a 3G enabled handset that comes equipped with a hefty package of features like Wi-Fi, GPS and Bluetooth but apparently does not support A2DP or file transfer (sounds familiar), according to reports. Let’s hope a quick fix is in order with a minor software update of some kind. The G1 also has a 3MP auto-focus camera but no word on Geotagging. This handset is currently locked in to T-Mobile and there’s no word yet on when it’ll get here or if it’ll be locked in to a provider here as well. Since the phone isn't here yet, we can’t give you a review, but here’s one done by the guys down at Engadget. |
