Finally it is here the Android Phone, G Phone, HTC Phone , or what ever they call it. As long as it is here. It was recently launch by T-Mobile yesterday. If you can remember I blog before regarding the so called leaked photos and specification of Android Phone.

This will be a test Mobile for Google Mobile Application. Well about the device, The device is made by Taiwan-based phone manufacturer HTC which will sell for $179 with a two-year contract, starting Oct. 22. T-Mobile will offer two different bundles of Internet and messaging services, on top of its usual voice calling plans: $25 for unlimited Internet and "some" messaging, or $35 for unlimited Internet and messaging. (T-Mobile should be posting these details soon at its press site, which for now only offers a replay of the phone’s unveiling in New York.).

I don’t know when it will be released in Philippines. If you remember iPhone was released by Globe Telecoms. Smart Telecoms should be fast in having deals with HTC so that they can have chance in releasing this phone in Philippines market. Many says that the Android Phone is an iPhone Killer so if Smart can get it , it will be  a great competition for Globe iPhone. Just my thoughts.

So here are some specification available in the net.

It has QWERTY Keyboard, 3 Megapixel Camera, Wi-Fi, Music and Video Player, and a Google packed products.
