It is true that T-Mobile is secret about the releases of new stuff. We asked all these questions pretty much at a corporate meeting about a month or two ago. Not even our regional managers new anything about any new releases of the "g2". I work for corporate T-Mobile and i can tell you guys that at this point anything can happen.

Remember when X-Box 360 came out, to compete with the PS3? And they skipped the X-Box 2 and went to something with 3 in the name so that the idiots wouldn't think the fancy new X-Box was older and less relevant/cool than the PS3? I think the same thing is happening here, as mentioned in the article. I think they just skipped the G2 so people wouldn't confuse it with older technology.

He said he did not and we actually talked for about 30 minutes while I messed with my phone. He basically looked in his T-Mobile event calendar and didn't see anything about any G2 or anything else with Android coming out anytime soon. He also said that T-Mobile also likes to keep things secret from their CSR's too, and that they usually find out only a week or 2 ahead of time. (No I didn't ask about cupcake - I didn't want to sound lame)He also said he couldn't understand why T-Mobile would even consider releasing another google phone so fast when the G1 is apparently a big success. I also told him about this website, so Im sure he's here somewhere. So, after a brief discussion on how to hack his xbox 360 we bid farewell to eachother and left it at that.

Why hasnt anyone here reported about this yet? Its cupcake running on g1 and video recording is almost there along with a softkeyboard and a crapload of visual enhancements.

They only us 3G. Either way the best name for HTC Magic should be the G2. How are G3 and G4 trademarks of apple. They only us 3G. Either way the best name for HTC Magic should be the G2.

In addition, the ful, name of the phone would be the T-Mobile G2 or T-Mobile G3. When I took the survey, every potential name had T-Mobile in the front and they even had a question asking what part of the name was more poweful: T-Mobile or G3? So most likely the T-Mobile lawyers have it figured out. While it is true the for Apple that G3 and G4 referred to CPU’s, they are still trademarks of Apple.

Why do the phones need to be renamed from the manufacturer's name? They should avoid calling it the "T-Mobile _____ with Google." That would set a bad precedent that all future Android phones to state they are powered by Google. I know it's good for marketing but it becomes redundant after a while, especially as the Android grows in market share. Finally what's so bad about calling it the G2, G3, G4, etc.? BMW has had cars named after numbers for 20+ years. Is there a reason they couldn’t call it the T-Mobile Magic? Why do the phones need to be renamed from the manufacturer’s name?
