Tue, 09/23/2008 - 11:00 | by hobbs

I've avoided rumor after rumor, but it's now official! The T-mobile G1 will be launching in the US October 22nd, and will be priced at $179 with a contract and data plan. It will then be available in the UK in November, and available throughout Europe in early 2009. They did mention that the source will be coming out when the devices launch, so that will be great!

To access various functions

To access various functions within an application, you can perform another long press and a window will pop up with your options. It's contextual, so the menu items will always be relevant to the program you are in. You can swiftly navigate through lists with a quick flick, or you can drag your finger for a slower virtual private server, more precise look. In addition, you can pan and move Web pages and other documents by holding and then moving your finger around the screen. Unlike the iPhone, however, the G1's touch screen isn't multitouch, so you can't zoom in and out of pages by pinching your fingers apart. Admittedly, we really missed this feature, since it makes viewing Web pages and pictures easy, but it's not necessary.
