Communication Breakdown

Communications from the world of, er, communications. And other stuff.

Are we going to see a Googlephone after all?

Posted by David Meyer

There we were, thinking the development of Android effectively killed off the rumours of the "Gphone", Google's own-branded handset. But back the rumours come, courtesy of some off-hand comments made by Brin, Page and Schmidt. From a MediaWeek piece:

The trio of Google execs also used the opportunity to talk about the inroads the company is making with its own branded mobile phone as a replacement for the iPhone...

Add to that Michael Arrington's assertions that a San Francisco-based design outfit are working on said device, and it's fair to say the rumour mill is back up and running.

The trouble with entering a crowded market is that you have to bring something new to the table! I can't envision that Google would revolutionise mobile communication but I look forward to seeing what they do different.
