After a long time of rumours about a GOogle Phone it was finally the time: Google evaporated the fog and launched her own operating system. So, not a real Google Phone, at least not for now. Today, the first prototype device with Android system was spotted on the internet at the Gizmodo website and the rumours that HTC is to be the producer of the device seem to be true. Since the start of the Google Phone rumours, the link with HTC as producer of the device was clear. Now the first photos of the prototype with Android system have shown up, the rumours that HTC is the producer of the Google Phone are getting even stronger.

The photo that reached the internet today looks a lot like an earlier photo on which only the display of the device could be seen. Earlier, a press photo of the device that we showed you today leaked out and a lot of HTC characteristics are found in the candybar. For example, the keys of the Android Phone are very characteristic, as are the quick keys that are placed in the middle of the device. A real confirmation that this device is an HTC phone is something we have not received yet, but because the rumours are getting stronger we expect the device to be launched at the Mobile World Congress in February 2008.

The person that has placed the photo of the Android device at the Gizmodo website tells that the operating system is extremely fast, many times faster than the standard Windows Mobile system. If the device is really as fast as told and if HTC really is the manufacturer to sell the phone is something we will have to wait for a little longer.
