According to Business Standard, Google is in discussions with Bharti Airtel (an Indian mobile operator) and Vodafone to debut a Google brand mobile device in early September ‘07 called the gPhone. Google plans to invest about $8 billion on the device and has been negotiating with T-Mobile USA and Verizon Wireless to support it. Eric Schmidt, Google’s chairman and CEO, said that they may participate in the FCC's upcoming 700 MHz spectrum auction.
The yet to be announced Google Phone may be designed by Samsung, and could include a large screen, QWERTY keyboard, a 2 megapixel camera, 3G, WiFi and other Google services like Search, Gmail, Maps, Blogger.
