T-Mobile.nl (Netherlands) is already taking orders for the G1, I’ve ordered one this afternoon.
I wonder when it’ll arrive at my doorstep…

In Germany it is usual to get the phone very cheap, BUT you pay it with a higher monthly rate. In many cases it’s actually a zero sum game.

My guess is that he means that for T-mobile, it’s their most successful phone, not the most successful phone ever in the US! That has to be the iPhone (or Razr, I heard that was big in the US too), surely? (Unfortunately!)

Haha, I admit Android is great but come on “most successful phone ever sold in the United States”?????

Matt Burns on CrunchGear put it well “until some solid numbers are produced that prove the G1 is “the most successful phone ever sold in the United States,” I will call Mr. Hamid Akhavan a big, fat liar.”

The G1 was free in the Uk on an 18 month contract.
