The big question we all want answered is how much is the G1 Phone, or as some refer to it the Google Phone going to cost us?

Well rumour has it that although the G1 Phone has been pre sold in the US at a decent premium, it may be available for FREE in the UK (probably in exchange for a lengthy contract we expect).

None the less, if there is any truth in this rumour, the google phone, sorry G1 phone, is set to banish the iPhone to dark cold lonely cupboards up and down the UK, possibly for good.

Gives us your views on the strengths, weaknesses and comparisons between the G1 Phone and the poor old iPhone.

We’ve all seen the previews of the G1 phone but we haven’t seen or heard very much about any G1 phone accessories. We want to hear your thoughts on accessories you would like to see available to the G1 Phone. Could there possibly be any accessories launched to rival the excitement surrounding the G1 phone itself? Being the first phone to operate on the Google Android Platform, we’re expecting great things, and that includes exciting and original accessories for the G1 phone.

A recent press release from Hitwise suggested that the UK public are predominantly referring to the new G1 Phone as the Google Phone. However, it is widely believed that this is an early trend led by the lack of UK publicity for the G1 Phone and widespread excitement surrounding rumours of a new phone created by Google.

Lets make this clear once and for all. The phone in question is the G1 Phone, built by HTC to be the first ever phone to run on the exciting new Google Android Operating Platform. Contracts for the G1 Phone will be exclusive to T-Mobile and will be available to the UK market in early November 2008 although will still await an exact UK release date.

One thing’s for sure, G1 Phone or Google Phone, we’re expecting the mobile experience to be taken to new highs when this one flies off the shelves in November.

Pink G1 Phone? – Ok girls, and some of you boys, since hearing about the latest phone to take mobile technology to the next level, we’ve all been asking, can we get one in pink?

Although there is no evidence to suggest T-Mobile will introduce a pink g1 phone, we all know it would be a best seller and a must have for many.

We’re looking for as many of you as possible to join our campaign for a pink g1 phone and see if we can’t convince T-Mobile to make it happen.

Post your reponses below and lets keep our fingers crossed.

Since Google announced the birth of Android back in November 2007 Android News have been very suspicious of its true heritage due to his instant rise to fame. We therefore decided to trace back android’s ancestry only to reveal a host of familiar characters. We are slowly piecing back android’s bloodline but please feel free to comment on anyone who you may think is related!

Everyone wants to know, when can we get our hands on the G1 phone in the UK? One thing’s for sure, if any of us are looking to acquire a G1 phone on it’s release date (early November), the US market has shown that we must be at the ready when T-Mobile’s UK G1 pre order window opens in mid October.

There has been a great deal of confusion surrounding the G1 Phone release date and pre-orders for the UK mobile consumer, which we hope to clear up a little today.

T-Mobile had been taking pre orders for the G1 phone in the US, at a price of $179 (£99 at todays exchage rate), taken on a two year contract or $399 (£221) contract free. However, we heard yesterday that T-Mobile had closed the G1’s pre order window in the US due to overwhelming demand.

Our sources confirmed yesterday that T-Mobile plan to open a pre order window for the G1 in the UK around mid October 2008, and you can rest assured the moment that opportunity arises we will be letting you know. We need to move fast if we want to avoid the disappointment of not being able to get one when they go on sale in the UK in early November.
