Is gPhone only a Rumor?

by Gilad on October 5th, 2007

The biggest thing from Google, aside from its record high stock prices this past Friday, is definately the rumors behind the gPhone. Is it “for real” or just a rumor? No one really knows but Richard Martin tends to think that it “ain’t happening” and while the may have very well been toying with the idea and its development, it is more to force “possible competitors” to play by the “Google rules” and nothing more.

Martin lists 6 reasons for why he thinks the gPhone “ain’t happening”:

1. Google is a software-and-advertising company, not a hardware manufacturer.
2. The margins are low.
3. The competition is fierce.
4. No carrier will sell it.
5. It’s not fun.
6. Google doesn’t need to.
