The T-Mobile G1 with Google is an innovative PDA device manufactured by HTC that features the Android operating system, a big touch screen, a 3.2-MP camera, a slide-out QWERTY keyboard and WiFi support; some say it represents the next generation of mobile devices. It offers one-touch access to Google, Gmail, YouTube, Maps, Calendar and Google Talk, all of which work best when the G1 is used within T-Mobile's 3G coverage area. We think this is a real winner.
