The artical mentions the new Google phone would feature a slide-out QWERTY keyboard and would be designed by Samsung. I found an artical on IntoMobile.com about the new Google phone.

As the source code is completely open source, anybody and i mean anybody can write an app for the Gphone for FREE, give it to the friends for FREE. Now there will be some companies that have invested time and money into developing apps for the Gphone, and yes they can charge for them, that is their choice, but as with the nature of ALL GNU/linux (which android is) for every 1 commercially available app, there will be half a dozen or more free (and sometimes better) apps that will do exactly the same thing. Now I could rant on about GNU/Linux etc but I wont...... Back to the topic in hand. The video footage of ACTUAL phones running Android completely obliterate anything I have seen the I-phone do. (Several of my friends have the I-phone but are now looking at changing) The apps will take a to become fully available, this is a new OS, I know alot of people are working on the SDK (Software Development Kit) for Android so people are creating the apps, and if you cant find the app to do what you want, get the SDK (its FREE) and try and create the app to do what you want, once you have created (or attempted) there is NO risk to your phone as you run it virtually 1st to test, what more could you ask for. In my opinion the thing that is really going to dictate if the G-phone takes of or not will be the price, I Google want the phone to out to the mass markets and be available to everyone then they will need to ensure it doesn't come with the £350 sim free price tag that the the latest phones usually have attached. I have seen reports that the US market will be getting the phone for roughly $100 / £50 lets see what price they try and sell it to the UK market for.

What they need to do different from the iphone is make the keyboard similar to that of the sidekick. The touch screen keyboard on the iphone makes it very difficult to type quickly without making errors. That is the biggest flaw in the iphone. Those of us to prefer to text or always texting find it hard to use. This will be great! What they need to do different from the iphone is make the keyboard similar to that of the sidekick.
