Valleywag has confirmed that the fictional fantasy of gadget nerds everywhere has turned out to be an exaggerated hoax. "Too bad it was all for naught. There is no Googlephone, folks. Move along." Owen Thomas reported.
Though the hopes of many were raised to euphoric levels, the Googlephone (GPhone) will not turn out to be an iPhone killer after all. The same is sadly true of Verizon's new Voyager due to launch sometime in late November, the latest contender with grand claims of being a modern day David to Apple's 'Goliath' iPhone. "The Googlephone functioned as a fantasy. A very useful fantasy. Like the Apple rumor mill, the cottage industry in Googlephone speculation served as free, crowdsourced market research." explained Thomas.
What some call fantasy and others call fiction, must confidently be labeled a hoax. A wildly popular four letter word used to dismiss the mythical Googlephone. No Google talk, no $100 GPhone, no kidding!
