It wasn't supposed to exist. "The" Google Phone. Then we (and others) heard otherwise. And now, Google isn't just handing this "sexy beast" out to employees, they're going to sell it directly. Everything has changed...Gizmodo's right and US Telcos are finally going to be pushed into the 21st century as telcos already have in other parts of the world (Asia, Europe, Canada etc., etc.) where competition rules and dictates to the customer and handset developers no longer apply. Finally, there's an unlocked phone loaded with power, elegance and with enough corporate gravitas that AT&T, Verizon and Sprint, among others, cannot ignore. Disruptive tech to the max. Let's hope the price point is spot on because if so, I'm buying one.
