THE NEW G1 iPHONE


Looks like there is a new competitor for Apple's iPhone.The new mobile released by T-mobile is called the Google phone or the G1.The T-Mobile G1 also features a touch-screen, slick software, and a software store that make it appear a strong competitor to other smart phones. It arrives at a competitive price of $180 with a two-year contract from T-Mobile.

G1 owners will be able to browse Amazon's 6 million tracks across the T-Mobile network. The iTunes store is off line for iPhone users not on a Wi-Fi network. G1 users must be on a Wi-Fi network to download the music itself.The G1 has other unique capabilities, such as spinning the phone to spin around street-level photos available on Google Maps. And its tight integration with other Google applications looks promising. All of those are applications that could appear soon on other phones, including through the software store that Apple offers for the iPhone.
