Google's New Smartphone is playing in Apple's iphone playground. I wonder if they will play nice?

It seem a few weeks ago on Sept 24, the am newspaper, BBC, other media outlets were all talking about the new Smartphone.
Google's Smartphone carrier will be t-mobile. Later in the week t-mobile removes limits on the Google phone surfing. (Why would they put limits?)
It seems that t-mobile wants to play with the big kids aka iphone.
The new phone that is called the T-Mobile G1 goes on sales Oct.22. This is good time to launch the phone since the holidays will be around the corner. That is less then two weeks away.
Also, check out this link:http://blog.proud-geek.com/2008/09/23/first-google-smartphone-announced/. It has a lot of information on the phone and all the features.
What do you think of the new phone and will you get it?
Personal, I like what you can do with the programs, the phone will be unlocked, and you can tailor it to fit your needs.
