| You want to get your hands on a totally unlocked G1, both SIM-wise and hardware-wise? To get one you would have to register as a developer and shell out $399 to buy one. This is definitely a special edition only available to help developers build their Android applications. The T-Mobile G1 has been out since October 2008. Just like other highly anticipated phones, tons of news of security issues around unlocking etc appear after . Now there is an official channel to get a totally unlocked G1 - yes, free of T-Mobile - all yours.
This piece of news is also a godsend to those still waiting for the G1 to sell in their countries. This has certainly opened the G1 doors to a lot of people. This link will point you to the registration as a developer at the Android Market. Registration only costs $25. That is a very small amount considering now what that status will let you buy. The Android Dev Phone 1 is fully compatible with Android 1.0. It comes with the newly unlocked bootloader so you can flash custom Android builds!!! Come on now, even if you are just an "amateur" developer, I am sure you will find this a very happy day.

| Meebo announced the launch of its Android messenger – providing G1 users access to AIM, MSN, Yahoo, Google Talk, Jabber and ICQ. Best of all, the new Meebo app can work in the background – allowing messages alerts to be pushed to the status bar even if the app is not in the foreground (score Android 1, iPhone 0). Review to come.

| With the imminent release of T-Mobile's HTC T-Mobile G1, Google today has made the Android code available to the public. This is truly a good day for developers. Android is said to be a complete, end-to-end software platform that would let developers do all kinds of wonderful things and really compete in the mobile arena. Of course, this is in direct reference to the iPhone, which has boosted the online surfing market for all smartphones significantly since its release. Everybody in the industry is hoping the Android platform will further improve the market share of all smartphones, in particular for touch screen phones.
