Google Working On A Mobile Device?
"Now that the iPhone has moved from rumor limbo into the land of the living (at least we think so -- how many people have actually touched one?), we obviously need another mythical mobile to drool over and speculate about -- and the natural candidate is, of course, the so-called Google phone."
Ok, so I have a post title with a question mark, but if ever a post deserved one, this does. Deep Throat in this case offers some barebones info - Java/Linux with a graphics engine designed for rendering quality images in low-power devices (the image above is from a supposed Samsung-Google collaboration). There's some indication that the marketing model will be different from the typical (for NA anyway) carrier-based hardware-for-contracts proposition. On the whole not much to go on, but oh what fun it is to speculate!

Interesting. Though it looks like it would be fragile. Plus, no Windows OS PROBABLY means no sale for me...
