Next-gen Android phone coming soon? | Wireless - CNET News.
HTC and T-Mobile are readying a new version of the G1 Android phone, according to the gadget blog Gizmodo. On Wednesday, Gizmodo posted pictures of what is supposed to be the new Android "G2," which the blog says is expected in May. The new device is much thinner than the previous G1 because its slide keyboard is gone. Instead, HTC has taken a page out of the Apple iPhone playbook and will only offer a virtual keypad.
