The Google phone is real, and it’s finally here. Stand clear of popping corks.

The T-Mobile G1, the first cellphone with the Android operating system designed by Google, will be available Oct. 22. Actually, to be completely accurate, there isn’t anything called “the Google phone.” You can’t buy “the Google phone,” any more than you can buy “the Windows PC.” Google makes the software (called Android), and it’s up to the phone manufacturers to build cellphones around it.
