G1 News

The popularity of the T-Mobile G1 has been well documented, but even the most eager of beavers have been getting some bad news regarding pre-orders in the US…

For customers who pre-ordered before October 3rd, they still may get their shiny new Google Phone on the launch date of the 22nd of October. Any later? You will get the G1 on November 11th. At the earliest.

Which means that queueing up outside your local shop and taking your chances is far more likely to earn you a G1 on launch day (or even launch month) than sitting at home twiddling your thumbs waiting for your pre-order to be delivered.

Sounds like any UK G1 fans would do well to start lining up now, but get behind me, I’m first!

Anyone think that these user interfaces are starting to look more like Facebook? Between their little tabs at the top and the Nokia 5800’s ‘friend feeds,’ it all screams “social networking is great!”

It’s a phone. Social networking is pretty high up on a list of priorities already…

Lucky souls at T-Mo News already have a T-Mobile G1, and are showing off the innards with intimate detail!

The PSP-style slip case is nice, but the reams of wasteful cardboard and paperwork are enough to make a hardcore Greenpeace protester weep. Won’t somebody think of the planet?

In the case of the G1, we’ll make an exception.
