Unlocked G1 Phones Available

December 16, 2008

Dont you just hate it when a phone comes out that you really want but you find it’s locked exclusively to a network – a network that you’re not subscribed to.

That happened with the T-Mobile G1. This awesome Android G1 phone was released to the public, but only the T-Mobile public.

Well thankfully many unlocked g1 handsets are available. These Android G1 phones have been properly unlocked from T-Mobile and although they can run as high as ~$500 they are completely carrier free and will work fine across any network.

Check out these unlocked Android g1  phones , greatdeals to be had.

T-Mobile G1 Reduce Already In The UK?

December 2, 2008

Yikes, the T-Mobile G1 has barely been available for a month in the United Kingdom but it seems that isn’t gonna stop T-Mobile UK from reducing their G1 pricing.

T-Mobile UK have reduced the cheapest G1 contract down to just £30, with the G1 handset available free. They’re also giving new customers an 8GB memory card too.

This new pricing structure should definitely bolster some fresh sales for Google and T-Mobile’s first Android Phone – hopefully we’ll see some reductions like that over here soon.. free handset anyone?

Yup that’s right folks, the waiting is almost over!

T-Mobile have sent out invitations to a special press event taking place next Tuesday in New York City. The event will see the official unveiling of the first Android powered handset on T-Mobile.

We’re expecting them to unveil the HTC Dream/G1 handset, although we’d love to see a surprise HTC Touch HD included too!

Rumors flying around this week have pencilled in an actual release date of the end of October, so there’s still a few weeks left. But hopefully after Tuesday’s event we’ll have a definitive date to mark on our calendars.
