Posted by timothy on from the if-the-trial-balloon-floats-up-the-flag-pole dept.

An anonymous reader writes "AndroidAuthority.com is reporting that T-Mobile is considering putting free ad-supported Gmail access on its T-Mobile G1 smartphone — no data plan required. The G1 launches in New York tomorrow and is the first device to hit the market that uses the Linux-based Android OS that is backed by Google."

    I have been thinking about getting an iPhone G3

    Me too, when do you think it'll be released? The current second generation iPhone runs on 3G networks, I bet this rumored G3 one will use some sort of satellite.
