Google Phone: "Dream Phone" Might Be a Little Strong

I disagree.
The Android open development platform is key.

The iPhone is a nice gadget... although I don't salivate over it like some.
But Android will offer competitive synergies that the locked down iPhone can not.

Think of this analogy (thanks Jared Diamond):

-the iPhone is all powerful China in the year 1408 - centrally controlled, impressive, and very dominant in it's sphere.

-the Android platform is Europe in 1408 - decentalized, competing against one another, with only a loose cultural affinity.

Now step ahead 100 - 200 - 300 ... years and see what becomes of these arrangements.... and more importantly - why.

Android is a force to be reckoned with ... and the G1 is just the first seedling to emerge from the fertile ground.
