Here’s bad news for those of you who are already waiting with baited for the reported Gphone that was said to come out mid 2008. There has been a delay according to Google. So, it will not be out until the end of this year. There has been a bit of a hitch in the Gphone’s development. This awaited handset is not solely an effort of Google. Google is directly involved in designing the operating system; however, thirty other partners are also involved in the project in order for the handset to be more of what people need.

The operating system that Google designed is called Android. This OS is said to be more advanced to help boost the company’s revenues through internet advertising since a lot of people nowadays access the web through their handset. Some of the Google’s partners in the device are T-Mobile USA, Sprint Nextel, China Mobile, HTC and France-Telecom. Because the Android is taking its time, they have to change the date for which they get to release handset having it as the platform.
