TMobileOfficial, T-Mobile UK’s official Twitter account, released today that the latest Android phone will be named the G1Touch. We can only speculate right now as to what hardware device that name will actually be stamped on, but it’s pretty certain just by the name that the new phone will not be sporting the slide-out keyboard of the older G1. And with the amazing quality of the new Cupcake update’s on-screen keyboard, that’s not necessarily going to be missed.

Although it’s not set in stone, we felt it was necessary to go ahead and release some information regarding all of the G2 rumors. Turns out some mentions by HTC indicate the G2 will be ready in the first half of 2009, and possibly another Android phone is in the works as well. All of this, of course, has either been fully denied or confirmed by either HTC or T-Mobile, but it’s very safe to say that it’s a go for the G2 in mid-2009.
