Sure, a Google-sponsored phone OS in the way of Androidis pretty great news for mobile phone land, but what if your really hadyour heart set on some Google hardware this Monday morning? Well takeheart, because Forbes has the skinny on an HTC device labeled "Dream,"(most likely
not pictured above) which could very well beoft-rumored hardware of legend, and could also be hitting the market asearly as next year. Apparently the phone is one of roughly fiveprototypes that Google had built to demonstrate the Open HandsetAlliance software to potential members, and HTC's Peter Chou says inthe two years it's been working on OHA designs, "this is the best onewe've seen." The device itself, which measures about 3 x 5-inches,sports a touchscreen, navigational controls at the base, and a fullswivel out keyboard. When swiveled the screen goes from portrait tolandscape mode, but unfortunately that's the limit of info on theactual hardware. The software apparently has "time-sensitive" touchcontrols that expands your area control the longer you touch. Icons foryour most important apps -- which are apparently email, text documents,and YouTube -- are lined up across the top of the screen. There's alsosome fancy stuff under the hood to keep an ongoing browser session opento speed launch times, and the browser downloads large files in stagesto speed delivery. HTC is considering a commercial version of thephone, which we could be seeing as soon as the second half of 2008.
