The G1 manufactured by Taiwanese company HTC is one of the most expected phone from the iPhone. Be launched for sale in October 2008 and reports that will be priced at $ 199. With free access to their gmail service and compass / GPS integrated with google maps will make this phone the iPhone's competition.
Google phone not look as good as Apple, but thanks to opensource Android anyone with the necessary knowledge can create applications for the phone.
Android Market
Unlike the competition, (Apple, Windows Mobile, Symbian) G-1 runs on an open system or opensource. This means that is based on a free system like Linux, which anyone can use and modify to your liking.
The advantages of Android Market is that you can share or sell your applications so freely and without restrictions such as those implemented Apple App Store for third-party software created for the iPhone.
