Google has reportedly indicated it plans to announce its mobile phone on Monday, including its partnerships with manufacturers and wireless providers that will be using its mobile OS. So far, it's thought that T-Mobile and Sprint will be carrying Google's mobile service, though there could be others for the US market.
For handset makers, it's looking like Taiwan's HTC, Samsung, LG and SonyEricsson are probably on board, along with China's e28. With rumors of a gphone being shipped out by Christmas, you may be disappointed to learn that any actual devices aren't expected until the middle of next year.
We've already begun to see the impact of Google's plans for its mobile software, with the company's stock reaching another all time high, hitting the expected benchmark at $700 per share.
