The AndroidGuys blog broke the news and posted images of the spec sheets. T-Mobile is the carrier behind the device, called the G1 and HTC is the manufacturer. The handset is similar in shape to T-Mobile's wildly popular Sidekick, complete with a sliding screen and full QWERTY keyboard. In addition to the Android interface, the phone will likely feature the words "with Google," capitalizing on the search giant's brand affinity.
The mobile device is reportedly set to hit T-Mobile stores in September, though T-Mobile has not officially announced a launch date.--Tameka Kee
