The Google Phone gets real as various scribes hint at prototype features: The
Boston Globe on its Qwerty keyboard and
three-dimensional animated buttons; Om Malik on its
specialized browser, mobile-Linux OS and Java apps;
TechCrunch on how Google's
Gpay mobile-payment system could be the Google Phone's killer application; and
Rational Security on the ads Google will run on the phone to
make it free.
Is this the beginning of free phone service?
