| If the murmurs are true, the GPhone cometh in September.

| Rizzn also notes that Google's mobile device "is less about beating the 
| iPhone and more about beating the $100 Laptop" made by the OLPC project. He 
| speculates that Google will sell the phones for cheap and then reap ad 
| revenue from targeted, text-based ads served to the phone. This isn't 
| entirely new information, but it's interesting to hear the comparison with 
| the OLPC -- at the least, we'll see an inexpensive, accessible device that 
| uses open-source software.

Google Using OpenMoko For gPhone?

,----[ Quote ]
| A friendly penguin has told us at Phoronix that Google is looking to team up 
| with OpenMoko for their "gPhone". Google will not be using the FIC Neo1973 
| GTA01, but they will be bringing the open-source OpenMoko platform to their 
| own hardware, which looks to be manufactured through HTC, and making a few 
| changes along the way.
