This, according to Mashable!:
According to a report in the Wall Street Journal tomorrow, it would appear that Google is ready to announce their plans regarding the so-called “gPhone†within the next two weeks. The search company plans to announce that it will produce handsets along with Taiwan’s HTC Corp and LG Electronics, according to the Journal’s “well placed insiders.â€
The Journal reports that the release date on the device will be mid-2008. While Google does not officially have any deals with carriers, they are apparently getting the most traction with T-Mobile USA, Orange (France), and 3 (UK).
Is it wrong that my major response to this story is a sinking sensation that we are headed for a slew of products coming at us, for years to come, that are formatted with the now-famous “lowercase trademark letter followed by name of the product beginning with a capital letter” except with “g” instead of “i”?
So if “g” and “i” are now taken, I wonder what I need to do to secure “m” as my own in the mind of the public?
Whatever it is, I think I better just do it quick before Microsoft beats me to it.

I just got a search hit for the phrase “whateverlife.com shut down” so I went to check. Indeed, it seems it’s not loading.
