I agree Chris...I dont think Google is ready to try its hand at hardware....they are software kings and they know it. Nothing would kill this faster than an UGLY handset.

I dunno Warren. A lot of people gave Apple shit for going into the portable MP3 player space, them not being a "consumer devices" company but a "computer" company. We all know how that turned out. I say let them try and see what happens. Not at all related, but Google has designed things like server appliances in the past. This is not their first foray into hardware.

True...They did give Apple shit with the iPod and iPhone - but at least Apple had a lot of experience with mass producing hardware before they did it. Google has limited experience with hardware - Honestly - I hope Google pulls it off - I have an iPhone and I love it - but competition is always a good thing for the consumer. :D

The iPhone is only useful to people who just need a phone, and iPods sound like crap out of the headphone jack.
