T-Mobile Wishing In One Hand, Holding Google Phone In The Other

by glu on September 22, 2008

  • T-Mobile will reveal the first commercially available Google Android device at a grand ceremony in New York tomorrow.  Steve Jobs declined to bring his trademark BOOM to the event, but Fake Steve Jobs is available.
  • Not since the Sidekick has TMo had a must-have device and even then, despite its superior messaging capabilities, the lacking featureset made it a “pass” for business and power users. The Google Phone has the potential to be the all-purpose device for TMo that the iPhone is for AT&T.
  • As Om notes, TMo’s 3G frequencies are slightly different than the rest which could be beneficial for TMo as it would prevent unlocked versions of the device from detracting from their much needed subscriber boost.

If the Google Phone/G1/Dream/Whatever is the breakthrough device we all hope it will be, will you switch to T-Mobile?
