Here at Mobileography, we’re always trying to find new ways to make our site better. To that end, we’re starting a new feature. We call it sticky content. The idea is that there is some content that needs to be updated fairly often. Take for example this article. Why not have an article that keeps track of the latest phone releases from t-Mobile? Seems simple right? Well, this is the first of many of those kinds of articles. Watch the sidebar for more coming soon. Read more…
The first Android-powered phone, T-Mobile’s G1, was officially released today. It comes preloaded with a varity of Google Applications (Search, Maps, Gmail, Calendar, Google Talk and YouTube). The Gmail app has most of the features of the web version (labels, conversations, etc) and Maps comes with StreetView built-in.
The phone itself isn’t a slouch either. It has a 3.2-inch TFT-LCD (at 320×480 resolution) and a full QWERTY keyboard. It has a 3.2 megapixel camera, and 8 gigs 1 gig of storage (plus a microSD slot). The phone does not have video capabilities, and it’s chained to the T-Mobile network. Undoubtedly, a unlock crack will be developed quickly.
Here is a video produced by Google showing off the phone:
And here are a bunch of photos of the device. It sure looks slick!
The price is expected to be roughly $200 with a two-year contract, or about $400 without. At this point, it will only be available on T-Mobile. Blech.
Engadget has posted the first good photos of the HTC Dream, running Google’s Android OS. The phone is clearly branded for T-Mobile, and we’re hoping these photos mean that it’s coming very soon. Enjoy!
