gPhone has more names: HTC Dream and T-mobile G1

The NY Times had an article on the gPhone today.  It rehashed a lot of info that I knew already about the Google Phone, but one thing that was interesting was the different names that were proposed for the phone.

 

The Google phone, which has been called the HTC Dream and the T-Mobile G1, has a touch screen that slides out to expose a five-row keyboard. It offers easy access to Google’s services and to a range of third-party applications.

The article also mentioned that one in 6 smartphone users had HTC phones already, but may not know it since other HTC often makes phones for other companies. HTC is located in Taiwan and has just recently started to make it’s own brand phones.  Google will bring HTC out of the shadows.

The article also says the chairwoman of HTC, Cher Wang, went to Cal the same time I did!  Go Bears!
