Google to make gPhone announcement Monday
Word on the street, though, is that gPhone will actually be a platform carriers and handset makers can add to their phones. By having its widgets on a variety of mobiles with no restrictions from carriers means that phone-to-phone or phone-to-PC tasks get much easier. Standardization is a good thing.
We’re also hearing rumors that gPhone will be ad-supported. The good: lower phone bills for gPhone users. The bad: ads before phone calls or in txt msgs.
The Goog does a good job of keeping ads at a tolerable level, let’s hope that continues into our pockets.
