G1 phones are now here! The T-Mobile G1




Went to 'google' something today and noticed that the G1 phones are now on sale. Is this the iPhone killer? The Gadget lab crew from Wired magazine has a review on YouTube here. Anyone out there have one? Tell us what you think! Is it as good or better than the iPhone?

The interesting thing to me is that Google developed the Android software, but it seems that they are not in the business to sell phones, but instead to provide a portal to the internet (and to their advertising) on the cell phone network. So although they are competing with Apple's iPhone, it seems that they have a different motivation. Not sure what that all means...
