It looks like the G1 was very well received by the public and especially by T-Mobile’s subscribers. G1 has already sold out during the pre-order period which means we might expect some iPhone-like lines in front of T-Mobile stores when the G1 arrives.
If you want numbers, people say that about 60,000 G1 units have been sold already. HTC plans to sell about 700,000 units this year and we might see that number easily surpassed.

We haven’t even gotten an official announcement from T-Mobile regarding the HTC Dream but details continue to leak out. This time, given to us by the Wall Street Journal, it was revealed that the Andrioid touting HTC Dream will retail for a modest $199, with a contract.
What other phone can you think of that retails for $199? Oh I haven’t a clue.

Although there is a lot less hype than what surrounded the iPhone 3G, Google’s first mobile device sure has many people stoked about what can be expected and what is rumored. We saw a video a while back of what the UI might look like, a potential release date, and now this. AndroidGuys have unearthed a few credible-looking specs for the HTC Dream G1 that aren’t too shabby. Apparently, T-Mobile is still in the picture and will be handing them out for $199 to whoever has a GMail account and opts for a two-year contract, but the release date has been pushed another month to October 13th. As for specs, here’s a list of what could be seen when it becomes available in black, white, or brown:
Quad-band 850/1800 and 950/1900 network capability with 3G, HSDPA, UMTS, and SPL support.
528MHz Qualcomm 7201 processor with 64MB RAM and 128MB ROM
Touchscreen display
Arc-sliding QWERTY keyboard
WiFi 802.11b/g
Google Maps (GPS?), StreetView, and YouTube support
3.1-megapixel camera with no video recording
MicroSD support with 1GB memory card preloaded
Support for applications via Android marketplace
At $199, these specifications sound too good to be true, but we better hold on to our horses until all or some of these are confirmed by Google, HTC, or T-Mobile.

Finally, and might I say unexpectedly, the day when a T-Mobile’s official would confirm its first Android device has arrived.
Not exactly a gPhone, but certainly an iPhone competitor, T-Mobile’s Android handset has been discussed all over the internet lately. But now we have something real, an official statement and not just rumors. (more…)

You may remember the HTC Dream we talked about earlier this month, said to be the first gPhone running on the Android platform
Well, the Dream is about to become a reality as the FCC has given HTC the go ahead to start producing the phone for consumers. All we know now about the phone is that it features a touchscreen, slide out keyboard, and 3G internet, carrier and the rest are currently unknown.
The real question however, is will this be the phone to equal the iPhone in hype? Or will it just be another attempt by a handset manufacturer to steal a few sales from Apple.

Here’s the kind of news I foresaw a few days ago while watching the rumored HTC’s Android powered Dream video. Only that I wasn’t expecting it to arrive so soon. It appears that T-Mobile will start presales for the Dream on September 17th and open sales on September 24th. Named conveniently the G1, I guess Google1 was to long, the Dream will be priced $150 or $399. (more…)
