"Google Phone" Launched Today!
The long-awaited Google Android mobile platform makes its debut today with the release of the T-Mobile G1 ($179 w/2-year contract).
It seems to have all the features of the iPhone (touch screen, computer-like web browsing, etc) with the Google stamp of approval. Why is a search engine like Google creating an operating system for cellphones? What is the future of mobile devices? Will carriers really give away all that power they’ve worked so hard to accumulate?
We’ll break down what all this means at the “Mobile Content” panel at Cyberposium — with panelists from Nokia, MediaFlo, and ex-MobiVox leaders!
