The Android Phone

Google and T-Mobile have teamed up to create a new breed of cell phone. The T-Mobile G1 Android is the world's first Android Phone. An "android" is traditionally defined as a robot with human qualities. Perhaps the name "Android" was chosen because of the capabilities of this new phone.
 

It's known as the T-Mobile G1 Android, the Android Phone, the G1 Phone, or (more informally) the Google Phone.

The G1 Android phone integrates fully with your Google accounts. Here are a few of the features and capabilities of this new cell phone:

  • An Android phone allows you to browse the internet just as you would on a normal computer.
  • The Android allows one to run several applications at the same time, on one phone. You can switch between applications, and you can also be notified when something new occurs on one of those applications.
  • It allows you to chat and share photos on applications such as Yahoo Messenger, Google Talk, etc.
  • The Android phone allows you to copy URLs and share them with friends via a chat line, using a simple touch-screen interface.

The following Google applications can be accessed and used directly by the Android Phone:

  • Google Maps
  • YouTube
  • Gmail
  • Contacts
  • Calendar
  • IM (Instant Message)

All of these Google applications will be available to you with a single logon - and they will be automatically synchronized with the web. What that means is that any change you make in one of your Google accounts from your phone will also show up the next time you log on from any other computer.

For example, when you are out and about with your phone and you meet a new contact, you might want to save their contact information. All you do is save it into your Google Contacts on your Android phone. That information will be available to you online, in your Gmail account, and in any other applicable Google account, accessible by any computer in the world.

Any information you save on your phone in this way will appear on your computer as well - and vice-versa.

 

 

If you lose or break your phone, your data will still be there waiting for you on your Google account, which you can access from anywhere in the world. And there is no need to worry about your information being stolen, as its password-protected.

Here is another example of the a use of a Google Android phone. Once you have a contact address saved into your Google account, you can easily find that location on a map - using Google Maps, of course. And what's more, you can access street level events in any area where this is available.

This makes it a breeze to get directions to a new location! Simply find your contact on a a map with a couple of clicks, and use a street-level view to find your way if needed!


Another example of the use of the Android phone is the integration of the cell phone with your Google Calendar. Any event you save on your Google Calendar will be available to you on your phone, wherever you are. So you can access your schedule easily, on the go and from anywhere, as long as you have your phone with you.

No more schedule books! And you can probably say goodbye to those tiny notebooks and pads of paper you carry around to save your information.

What's more, once you save information on your Google Android phone, there's no need to transfer it over after you get home. Its all there, safely stored on your Google account, for ready access whenever you need it.
