I know this photo is not official, but damn, it sure looks slick...

Anyhow, if this article on MacNN is true, this could be huge for Google.

An actual release date for the potential phone was not provided through the leak, though the Indian report noted that rumors begun in early 2007 had pegged a release within a year, pointing to an early 2008 release for the finished device. The initial claim would have had Google produce a Linux-powered touchscreen device that would depend heavily on Internet access to run applications. Speculation quieted down during the spring but was reinvigorated this summer when Taiwan component makers and other sources claimed that handset maker HTC had been asked to produce the device on Google's behalf. Regardless of its immediate plans, Google is already taking an active interest in licensing part of the soon to be auctioned 700MHz frequency in the US and is suspected of planning ad-based phone service as well as its own mobile broadband initiative.

I suppose this phone would connect to Google Talk and use Google's VOIP option?

Sounds like a good phone, and im sure google would be better than them apple b******s, and not charge an arm and a log for a device with a defective battery, and not allow 3rd party software, and nickel and dime you to death.

Google, even though they are huge, havent become corporate a**holes like some companies, their homepage is still simple, but useful, look at aol/yahoo's identical homepages.
