Did that mention about no desktop app for the T-Mobile G1 make you a little nervous? Run through this video which describes how Google’s web applications are all built right into and synced wirelessly with the fabled GPhone. Search, Maps, Gmail with Contacts, Calendar, Google Talk, and YouTube are the cornerstone services that are launching with the G1 and all work pretty nicely on the new handset. Looks pretty awesome… Who’s excited?
Simon Sage’s education largely surrounded writing, technology and online community, leading him to begin his blogging career at www.BlackBerryCool.com and to quickly discover a vibrant and active community surrounding BlackBerry and mobile technology. In exploring RIM’s platform, he has learned what enterprises are looking for in mobility as well as what makes the innocuous BlackBerry so appealing to them. Recently Simon’s been covering RIM’s gradual move into an already-crowded consumer market, and the impact of burgeoning challengers, such as the iPhone, as well as long-time leaders, like Nokia, on BlackBerry’s advancement.
With plenty of content under his belt, Simon will be branching off a bit to see what other smartphone manufacturers are working on while still using BlackBerry as a barometer. At IntoMobile, you can count on his posts being even-handed, well-informed and thought-out.
