    Can't see anything in the article that say HTC Dragon/Passion = Nexus One.

    Although work net connection is slower than a tortoise, so I gave up reading, once the other half of the article didn't load

    Re: Google Phone

    Google won't release this, it's more a rumour imo.

    They called the G1 the "google phone" and it wasn't made or distributed by google.

    Why would they produce middleware and hardware, would step on too many toes.

    Yeah, the Guardian states it...

    The new device, which was previously known as the Dragon, is a thin with no keyboard and a touchscreen display. Pictures purporting to show the handset indicate that its screen is slightly bigger than the iPhone, with a small trackball - similar to that used on many BlackBerry handsets - at the bottom.

    Re: Google Phone

    If it's the googlephone - it will be a google branded HTC phone with Android.

    If it's not - it will be a HTC phone with Android.

    Not really much difference! Spec for the Passion looks quite good though. Will probably buy that or maybe the ELSE phone (1ghz processor, mmm...).

    Re: Google Phone

    Isn't it funny how all these pics and videos are being 'leaked' just as the Google phone is apparently only a couple of months away from release...

    Re: Google Phone

    Be hard to leak it before it was being produced, and close to release would hardly be a big media scoop.

    This happens with lots of phones. I don't see your point.

    Why would they go through the time and effort of getting a phone made, to make it employee only?
