New ‘Google’ phone an impressive upgrade

Saying “T-Mobile G1” isn’t too bad, but “T-Mobile myTouch 3G with Google” is a mouthful. Once you get past the name, the phone itself is an impressive follow-up to the first Android phone that was released last fall. The “myTouch 3G” is due out Aug. 5, and after initial testing of the phone, I find it’s a winning alternative to the iPhone, BlackBerry and the Palm Pre for those aren’t enamored with those choices.

First, a warning. Root is hidden from you for a reason. Do not attempt this if you a: are not a Linux guru already or b: value your G1. Obtaining root gives you power to do stuff you probably shouldn't do without the safety of your phone telling you NO!!
