Google have revealed they're first phone - using the new Android software.
It looks AMAZING.
It syncs al your contacts, emails, IM's etc. with the web so you don't lose anything. Has a pull out qwerty keyboard, wifi, 3G, youtube built in etc
It's with t mobile and will be free with £40 a month contracts that come with unlimited internet browsing.
Will be out early November in time for Christmas!
IT HAS A BARCODE SCANNER LOL! It lets you scan products and find out prices and stuff online!
I SO AM GETTING ONE!!!

The Nokia N95 also has a barcode reader lol, but not really for prices (can't see how its possible to get the prices of the products as its on the stores Database and not on the internet). Tbh the phone looks quite ugly.

This phone will probably be only contract only. Not fully sure though, I like the Google software the phone uses, but not sure about the look of the phone. Although, I have to look into it further :D

I think it will be available on the general flexi t mobile contracts, but all it says is that you get the handset free with the £40 a month one.
So that must mean you can get the £30 a month or whatever for a bit cheaper.
Looks brill.

Doesn't look anything special or not seen before? And to be fair it's not much of a Google phone, just Google's Mobile OS.
I thought Android was going to take on Windows Mobile, but judging by the 'MP3 Store', 'Youtube Store' and things, it's really trying to battle with the iPhone's instead.
It would be ok if they didnt add the keyboard :l

You can get pretty good typing rhythms going after a little while, and it allows the screen to be landscape as well for widescreen movies or web pages. At least it doesn't take up space on the screen with a graphic keyboard.

Its too much for a mobile phone. It's just another thing which can easily break.

I like the keyboard. Least it isn't onscreen as well which you can make mistakes on or sometimes not tap hard enough etc.
Also I like how the zoom feature on the net is a simple zoomin/zoomout and none of that "grabbing" crap that didn't work half the time.
