T-Mobile G1 will be here on Nov. 10

October 13, 2008

Looks like Christmas is in October for me this year. I’ll be looking for the new T-Mobile G1 to show up around the 10th of November according to the order information. Yeah, I couldn’t help joining over 1.5 million other new Android fans and preordered the phone last night.

I’ve been waiting for some time for the right phone to come along, and this may be it. For sure, it’s a whole new ballgame instead of Windows Mobile, BlackBerry, Nokia S60, iPhone, or Palm.

Let’s see… Google Maps integration, GPS, Push Gmail, Google & YouTube integration, 3G on T-Mobile (so I don’t have to change carriers), the Android Market, and integration with Amazon MP3 store. Too cool.

I’ll post on the device as I get it and share what I learn about it. Happy to have an exciting 3G smartphone on T-Mobile for a change. I’ve made my darn T-Mobile MDA last nearly 3 years!

Hey Rick,

Thanks.

Miles, its certainly possible - especially for those who ordered their G1s in the first batch and were told to expect them on the 22nd of Oct.

I ordered mine just a week ago or so and was given Nov. 10th as a deliver date. I’ll welcome it earlier, but will be happy to have it in my hands on schedule.
