Google Phone aka HTC Dream aka T-Mobile G1
Hi everyone. There has been a long time since i didn't post here, so it was about time.
During the last weeks a new phone caught my attention, and it caught it so much, that i've never looked after a phone so much as this one. As title sais, it's about the Google Phone(yes, that's how i call it). If you ready up carefully on it, it may seem as it is a dream, but it's not anymore. Before you jump out of your seat and want to buy one, just stay put, for now only in the USA you can buy this phone, in the following months it will be delivered across the world, but let's just see what does this little phone know.

We will start from the inside out. What is the little heart of this awsome creature ? It's an open source operating system, called Android, and it's developed by Google, so people may call it the Google OS. Android has been such a great hit on the phone market, that all major phone manufacturares announced that they will makes phones, which will have Android on them, so I'd say that next year will be the "Android Year". Anyway, the Google Phone is the 1st which uses the Google OS. This is linux, but it combines Google's online applications with the desktop ones. Like you can run youtube, google maps just a touch away, and of course all comes preconfigured for your phone.
This is Android on iPhone(!!!)
What comes with the Android in the Google Phone ? Well of course a touch screen, which handles the movements of your finger pretty easily, and basicly you can do everything with the touch screen, but when it comes to typing, the G1 has a QWERTY keyboard also, which appears, if you pop up the screen.
On the keyboard you can find a magnifing lense, which is the Search button, so with that button you can search in any application, in youtube, google, google maps, your contacts, your text messages, your IM messages, anywhere.
The dimensions of the Google Phone is: 11.7cm x 5.5 cm x 1.6 cm, which makes it smaller then the iPhone, but it's thicker.

The Phone comes with a 1GB Micro SD Card as far as i know, but maybe it's just an SD CArd. As an info when will this phone be available, i can't give you a straight answer, but for example, in Hungary, it apears next spring, and i'm sure, once it will appear i can't wait to buy one, this Phone is just great, something i've been dreaming about for years now. Finally here is a video demonstration of the HTC Dream G1 T-Mobile Google Phone, so you can see it in action. (One thing, no one talks about how well can you talk on it, or how does the text messages writing work, but I guess we'll find out, for sure i'll post a blog, when i get this Dream Phone! (: )

The war of the biggest.


10 years ago Google formed, popped out of the 2 mens head. Apple established on 1st April 1976 - well for sure it was no joke for April's fools day.
What do we see today? 2 companies fighting, if not directly, then indirectly. Google and Apple both are on the tech market for years. Google started with it's search engine, Apple with it's computers. Today both are doing the best that can be done, Google = best search engine. Apple = Best computers. This is a short article about this, so don't worry on reading too much.
What my point is, that recently the 2 companies met on a market, the phone market. Apple previously launched the stunning, beautiful and amazing iPhone, if someone touched this, or tried it, or even saw, usually wants one. Here's the pic for those who don't know the iPhone:

Google then came last month with it's own phone, altogether with it's own operating system (yes, Google has an operating system), called Android. The phone is great, some say it's the iPhone killer, but not quite now i'd say. Altho, i'd love to have a Google phone( HTC), it has a keyboard, not like the iPhone, and it also has the touchscreen. In dimensions both are kinda the same, the iPhone is a little bit slimmer, that's all. Google phone:

I'll be curious who will win this, and recently i found out something. There is one more ceontender on this market with a same kind of a phone, at a smaller price.
This is the brand new Nokia 5800 XpressMusic. Basically it's the same as the HTC (Google phone), or as the iPhone. The phone was shown a few days ago officially, and it will be launched in the USA, Asia and Russia this year, in Europe next year. Next year, because it seams that 2 major phone companies, T-Mobile and Orange, asked for this, the reason maybe is that for Christmas people can buy the iPhone (because in Europe you still can't get the HTC). The Nokia ExpressMusic:

If these 3 phones would be put in front of you, which one would you pick ? (:
(I'd go for the XpressMusic)
