Android G2 Rumors
Posted by Sam Churchill on December 22nd, 2008Android G2 Rumors Blaze, reports PC World.
The Boy Genius Report says the new smartphone running the Open Handset Alliance (Android) operating system was rumored to be available somewhere between late February and April.
The specs for the G2 are reportedly almost the same as the G1 with some notable exceptions.
- The G2 will not have a physical keyboard of any kind, instead favoring a full touch keyboard more akin the iPhone.
- the track ball will remain on the phone for those who prefer it for navigation.
- a VGA camera in addition to the existing 5-megapixel camera. The new camera should support better video calling, which would help differentiate the G2 from competitors like the iPhone.
- The launch was delayed from late February to April due to software issues.
Supposedly the G2 will also be available through other carriers than just T-Mobile. T-Mobile still owns the G1, G2, and G3 names, so it is unknown what other carriers will be calling it.
A Garmin Android Phone is Coming in 2009, says Phandroid. Garmin announced their entry into the mobile market almost a year ago with the still unreleased Garmin Nuvifone and then they joined the OHA earlier this month. AndNav2 is Android’s first ever navigation application.
Garmin expects to ship 18 million GPS navigation devices in 2008.
