Google Phone - I Was Right!

It’s not often I get to say “I told you so,” but back on October 1, I wrote a post titled why the Google phone isn’t coming. In it I said that there probably won’t be an actual Google handset, but rather that the company was just using the reported prototypes to show off it’s mobile phone software.

It turns out I was right. Google finally came out and announced what they’re up to. It looks like the “google phone” is what I thought it would be - mobile applications for companies to put on their phones.

It’s still an interesting project though, and one that I’ll continue to follow with much interest - but I have no plans of abandoning my iPhone.
