Yatta!!! The long much awaited Android-powered phone is now arrived. T-Mobile USA and Google revealed the first Google Android phone (previously code-named the HTC Dream), T-Mobile G1 on Tuesday, Sep 23, 2008 in an event held in midtown Manhattan. The T-Mobile G1 will be made available on Octber 22, 2008 in the US on T-Mobile’s network with a starting price of $179 with a two-year service contract. T-Mobile offers subscribers with two service plans; $25 a month extra (unlimited web surfing and 400 text messages) or $35 a month extra (unlimited web surfing and unlimited texting) on top of a basic voice plan that costs $35 a month.

The T-Mobile G1 is available today for a pre-order by T-Mobile in black, brown and white colour. The T-Mobile G1 comes with a full touch-screen, a QWERTY keyboard, 3 megapixel camera, 3G network support, WiFi network support, embedded GPS, and is loaded with mobile versions of Google apps including Calendar, Contacts, Gmail, Maps, Search, Talk and Youtube.

After watching the above demo of G1, seriously I want the G1. Unfortunately, the G1 is not available in Malaysia. Hmm…wonder how can I get a unit from US and will it be locked?
