Google Phone. Again.

"If these rumors are true then 2007 will turn out be the best year for mobility. Though most of the action seems to be happening in the competition's arena; we saw the launch of the feature packed Nokia N95, and then the user friendly iPhone. Windows Mobile platform has seen some new devices, some like the HTC Tilt-Kaiser are definitely interesting but nothing has come close to generating a buzz. The only thing that comes close to generating a buzz for Windows Mobile is the picture above, if you look closely you will see the Windows Mobile home screen. The photo is obviously a mock-up, but if it turns out to be true then that would be best endorsement the Windows Mobile platform can get."

Kris over at Smartphonethoughts.com has some info on the Google Phone rumours that have been making the rounds lately. If true, I honestly don't know what to make of it - as a search/software company, it doesn't make much business sense for Google to get into the hardware side of things - though I wouldn't complain having another rogue outsider shaking up the mobile phone industry. Using their own device as a platform for Google applications doesn't make much more sense either, since they're on virtually everyone else's already. Anyone have a better explanation for the rumoured release of the alleged Google Phone?
