Google Android-A Damp Squib!


After iPhone 3G, Google's Android OS based Goggle Phone or G1 was unveiled yesterday. But by the initial looks and the content of the device it looks to be a damp squib. The phone's design is age old, bricky and no way near the big gaints like Nokias or SEs. Maybe Google's strategy is to sell whats inside the phone rather than its looks.

Though t-mobile is selling it at very cheap rates, it is quite possible that the phone might not live up to its expectaions and might be shelved very soon. Of course, Google cant expect to beat long time players and pioneers like Nokia and Ericssons. But they are going to try all the tricks in the book before giving it up.

Meanwhile am still cursing myself for going for the shitty Blackberry :(
