New 'Google phone' coming

US telecom carrier T-Mobile announced on Monday that the latest version of a touch-screen smartphone featuring Google's Android software would be available in August.

This is a really stupid post from an USA source , Vodacom released this phone as the HTC Magic a few weeks ago, check your facts before copy and paste.

We have already seen that MTN and Vodacom have gobbled the Android advantage and denied the consumer any cost benefit ... what's the point of even hoping that this arrives in SA?

Are you guys sure it's the same phone?

The google phones were meant to be affordable but we've gotten screwed with over-priced packages again.

Apparently this is the myTouch: http://www.infosyncworld.net/resources/products/t-mobile/t-mobile_mytouch_3g_p00.jpg
And this is the Magic: http://www.unwiredview.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/htc-magic-vodafone.jpg

Looks the same to me.
Specs are pretty much identical too: http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone2=2714&idPhone1=2848
