The T-Mobile G1 will hit the UK this October 30th, 2008. Available only in black and white, the phone will be available for free on a £40 monthly contract. In case you forget, this smartphone features GPS and compass, supports 3.5G (HSDPA/HSUPA) and Wi-Fi connectivity, a 3MP digital camera, MP3 music player, pre-installed 2GB Micro SD memory card (supports up to an 8GB card), and Bluetooth. Its battery provides up to 130 hours standby and up to 5 hours talk time. [T-Mobile UK]

When Google announced the Open Handset Alliance (a group of wireless industry players looking to get their names associated with Google’s Android open mobile platform project), true open-source smartphones were a great idea that seemed far from commercial realization. This will change on October 22, when the T-Mobile G1 ??? the product of an exclusive partnership among T-Mobile, Google, and Asian handset manufacturer HTC — becomes the first shipping mobile device based on the Android platform.
Does anyone know of a place to look for UK cheap mobile phone deals that offer the G1. I have a friend in the States who recently purchased the Android, as it is out there, and I have heard nothing but a shining review on the phone! I am looking to compare mobile phone offers, because the way he talks this is the only present I should be looking for this Christmas!
