Google Phone, the Phone of the Future?
Google December 18th, 2006 - By Haochi
The Observer reports that Google is in talk with Orange, a mobile phone operator and an internet service provider, about a multi-billion-dollar partnership to create the Google Phone.
The newspaper, says that the Google phone”would not be revolutionary: manufactured by HTC, a Taiwanese firm specializing in smart phones and Personal Data Assistants, it might have a screen similar to a video iPod. But it would have built-in Google software which would dramatically improve on the slow and cumbersome experience of surfing the web from a mobile handset.”
It is possibly true, I guess. Do you still remember Eric Schmidt, Google’s CEO, said that they wanted to give cheap phones away to users so users could bring the data with them? For every ads we click on, Orange gets a share, for every call we make, Google gets a share.
