Hello and welcome to the website all about the android G phone, If you've been locked in a barn for the past year, you are forgiven if you do not know what the G phone is. If you have not been locked in a barn for the past year and still don't know what the g phone is then shame on you!! :)

The G phone aka google phone is.... You guessed it a phone provided by those wonderful people at google, a phone to rival any phone out there. Today I am the proud owner of one, I am so proud I have made this website to assist others in anything related to the android G1 (the current google phone), I expect in the future we will be honoured to have available a G2, G3 and even a G4!! It makes my legs shake just thinking about it :)

If you want to try the phone out tmobile have brought out a G1 emulator obviously its not as good as the real thing but it gives you an idea just how good the gphone is.

Android is the brain of the Google G1 and the brain for all future mobiles. Android is basically a platform that provides the operating system for the phone (such as windows XP does for a computer) it also powers and provides applications, the user interface and middleware.

The android platform itself is expected to not only make the cost of producing mobile phones alot cheaper but also to provide a standard platform for all phones in the future.

Android is open source, meaning if you wish to add new android applications they can be developed by a third party and are also available free of charge.

Wikipedia has an android mobile device platform page here

The Android G1 is the first phone available to the public with the android platform, Also named HTC dream or T mobile G1. The phone went on sale in the US on the 22nd October and priced at $179, In the UK the release date was 30th October and the G1 Phone is available for free on T-Mobile Combi and Flext price plans from £40 a month for an 18 month contract.

The G1 is packed full of features such as WiFi, A 3.2 megapixel color camera & a Qwerty keyboard to mention a few. The android platform allows to be updated and new applications to be added like never before.

The g1 did have alot to live up to especially since the launch of the iphone but to be honest the G1 is a completely different class. The iphone camera is below average, usability is not nearly matched. The only advantage the iphone may have is looks, its sleek, sexy & small everything that appeals to mobile phone buyers. I am not saying the G1 looks disgusting but it depends on personal choice, I prefer functionality over looks.

The future however for android based phones looks very promising, Samsung has hinted they may be making a samsung android phone. LG have also been rumoured to be in talks about making an LG android phone.
