   1. Google Phone is based on a mobile variant of Linux, and is able to run Java virtual machines.
   2. All applications that are supposed to run on the Google Phone are java apps. The OS has ability to run multimedia files, including video clips.
   3. The user interface is similar to a UI typical of mobile phones, and the image (with red background) floating around isn?t representative of the Google Phone UI. The entire UI is said to be done in Java and is very responsive. The UI, of course has a ?search box.?
   4. There is a special browser which has pan-and-browse features that are common to modern browsers such as browsers for iPhone and Symbian phones. The entire browser is apparently written in Java. But then others have told us that the browser is based on the WebKit core, the same engine in Safari and in iPhone, and Google has been  making optimizations to speed it up. This is one aspect of the Google Phone I am not sure about.
   5. Initially there was one prototype, but over past few months Google has the mobile OS running on 3-to-5 devices, most of them likely made by HTC, a mobile phone maker, and all have Qwerty apps. The model that folks have seen is very similar to the T-Mobile Dash. Around 3GSM, there were rumors that Google, Orange and HTC were working together on mobile devices.

The ipod touch? I am assuming?

Not impressed a bit.

Its an iPhone minus the phone capabilities. Its ridiculously expensive for the capacity and probably will break easier than a regular video.

I sorta like the idea....I know windows I believe is making a computer that is similar to it, all touch.....

The nano looks strange, I would much prefer the current nano's over the new ones.

This is all a marketing ploy for apple to sell more IPODS in time for the holidays ... My kids are asking for NEW IPODS they just got 30GB video ones and like the look of the new ones. I say no more money for apple .

^ I agree. I got a new iPod last Christmas but I am perfectly fine with what I have. It will be about 4 years before I grab a new one.

Its VERY thin and small. But its really nice. I do have to say that I am impressed with these versions for iPod.
