Wonder if we will see it here in Japan? Or maybe some other handset manufacturers will use a localized version of Android?

the email thing is a big setback -and I'm sure there will be some quick solutions.

It's nice to see the cost for these products get down to the $200 mark. -I wonder if the data plan is unlimited. -G1 name is confusing compared to G3 networks. -flip phones protect better and I like the idea of the slide-out keyboard. -I wonder what Internet browser it uses.

I saw one review that said that the keys are tiny. It may make it difficult to type stuff...

now, this phone does not accidentally transmit user data to some Google server without asking, so that they can "provide a better service"...?

I heard the P.R. China version of the Google phone will automatically notify the police when the user tries to Google some politically embarrassing topic...
