T-Mobile to Employees: Get Ready for Google Phone

Evidence continues to mount that the Google Phone, a.k.a. Nexus One, will make its debut during the first full week of the new year. The latest: an update to an internal T-Mobile website that says, "Google, with support from T-Mobile, is scheduled to launch a new Android device in early January."

This confirms earlier reports that suggested the device would launch on or around January 5, which makes sense given CES is also taking place that week. The update also confirms that the phone will be sold directly by Google via the web, with T-Mobile offering "billing, coverage, features and rate plans."

Other key details, like Google's retail pricing and potential discounts that might come with a T-Mobile contract remain to-be-determined. What appear to full specs of the device, however, were leaked on the web last week.

Update: Google appears to be sending out invites for a January 5th "Android press gathering" at its headquarters in Mountain View, CA. Presumably, this is where we'll see Nexus One make its debut.
