Google Phone out in 2 weeks?

Hi all,

According to google-phone.com, the google phone (gPhone) will be released much faster then people anticipated.

Quote:
According to their unnamed source it will be only a fortnight before we hear an official launch from Google.
Latest design:



Only time will tell, keep on the look out guys.

This is the rest of the story, it's not as confirmed/realistic/actually going to happen as iversonjack might have you believe:



Before you read too much into this, be sure to get your recommended dose of salt ready. A newspaper out of India is reporting that Google will in fact be releasing a phone, and much sooner than anyone would have anticipated.
According to their unnamed source it will be only a fortnight before we hear an official launch from Google. Their source goes on to tell us that Google is currently in talks with two of the largest carriers in India for the phones release and that we can look forward to a simultaneous release in both the UK and the US. While I don’t see the phone coming out in a couple of weeks, I will admit that it would be great to see it released in the US and the UK at the same time. All too often do we see a product released in on place, while the other sits around patiently waiting for their turn. (see: iPhone)
Google of course has declined to comment on the latest rumor and was careful to neither confirm nor deny their plans for a phone. They did however have this to say, “Google is committed to providing users with access to the world’s information, and mobile becomes more important to those efforts every day. We’re collaborating with partners worldwide to bring Google search and applications to mobile users everywhere.”

yeah... good point
not exactly the first country you think of to release a new product
India does have a huge population with fast growing mobilephone market and ofcourse many good programmers

anyway...all just speculation here... ill believe it when i see it
my guess is Google will just release software tools for mobilephones at first as Google isnt a hardware oriented company

I think the prototype pics would be of much better quality if the g-phone was only 2 weeks away from being released regardless of what country that was going to be in.
