T-Mobile G1 vs iPhone 3G: Can Google bite Apple?

Conclusion

From the out-of-the-box perspective, we can say the G1 is the closest anything has ever come to the iPhone. Combining a customisable home-screen, an app store, a fantastic browser and a smooth finger-to-screen experience -- this is a real iPhone competitor if ever we saw one.

Is this an iPhone killer? No, not yet: the G1's hardware lacks the finesse of the iPhone and many people make or break their buying decisions on how something looks. Fortunately, new chassis are coming soon from a variety of manufacturers, including HTC, and then we'll have a real battle on our hands.
