It lloks like it's official now, Google phone does exist and it will be available at the beginning of 2008. forget about iPhone madness, Google phone is going to be much much worse, I mean better. I'm really excited about these news. Google are getting into the game with a very known mobile player HTC and will probably kill iPhone. Can't wait!

Some more details from Gizmodo: "On the software side, they're going to build a special version of Google Maps (complete with GPS), as well as have Gmail and Calendar compatibility. It's most likely going to have Google Docs compatibility too, but that wasn't specified. What's even cooler is that Google Talk, their free VoIP app, will be part of the suite. The OS could be Windows Mobile 6, or it could be a Linux-based OS, which would be even more interesting."
