HTC Dream coming to Spain via Telefonica, gets a facelift

This appears to have roughly the same guts as the G1 we already know and love, but Telefonica's version of the first Android handset -- like Optus' -- will get a name change to Dream. This one will also look just a little bit different, getting a more sculpted chin, but we don't believe this to be a totally unique device -- you can see the original model's design DNA shining through above the beltline. It'll be available for between €0 and €199 depending on your current subscriber status and the plan you choose, though we don't have a release date just yet.

I'm still not impressed.
My next phone shall be running Android but most likely it will be upcoming Archos smartphone.
Unless the new Nuviphone S60 or the coming toshiba , or maybe the N97, ot HTC's whitestone or .....my gosh is gonna be tough taking a decision next summer.

Would be a beautiful phone if they figured out how to get those 6 buttons @ the bottom of the screen so theres no chin.....

I hate to say it- but after having one, it would be weird not to anymore. Much easier to hold when you are drinking your coffee or holding an umbrella etc.

Yes, the chin is actually pretty nice and makes the phone easier to hold.

It's only a problem if you keep the phone in a really tight pocket so I've stopped doing that.

Looks Bad Ass! Can I trade for my black G1? lol, i hope so...

Looks a lot better, the original G1 looked like a prototype, this one looks like its now ready for retail.
