The T-Mobile G1 has landed on UK shores and is now in stock at Mobiles.co.uk, part of The Carphone Warehouse! The HTC developed phone has caused quite a stir in the mobile phone industry as it is the first phone to run on the Android operating system supported by Google. Affectionately known as the Google phone and G-Phone before its official announcement earlier in the year (this phone has been working the rumour mills for quite some time now), the G1 follows in the footsteps of the iPhone as a touchscreen device that is much more than just a phone…
The T-Mobile G1 (originally codenamed the HTC Dream) is a touchscreen phone with a trick up its sleeve; a full QWERTY keyboard which slides out when the phone is held horizontally and tucks back in nicely when you just want to use the touchscreen. The features that you’ll no doubt be accustomed to in a mobile phone by now include HSDPA and Wi-Fi, GPS connectivity with support for Google maps, a 3.2 Megapixel camera and Bluetooth. What helps the G1 to stand out in an ever more crowded market are two things; its Android operating system and the Android Market. The Android operating system allows is an open source platform, similar to the likes of Symbian and OSX, which is very easy to develop for meaning there should be no shortage of third party applications. And this is where the second factor comes in to play. The Android Market is an online store that allows you to download free and paid content directly to your G1. Set to become an extensive catalogue of applications, games and much more. Already available to download is the innovative Androidscan which lets you scan the barcode of a product in a shop then searches online for a better price and gives you a full comparison with the option to click through and buy, CallACab works with GPS to find your nearest taxi firm, tells you your current location and then lets you call through and book the cab, and, Cooking Capsules which is an interactive cooking tutorial gives you recipes and takes you through the cooking process step by step.
And this is just the beginning, the Android Market is set to become ever more popular as developers think of innovative and exciting new ways to utilise the Android platform. Click here to check out available offers, order your G1 now and experience first hand, the power of the Google phone!
