For those of you who ordered your G1 and just can’t wait for it to get here, you can get your G1 fix right now (sort of). A new site, launched by T-Mobile, offers a G1 emulator (pictured) so you can play around and get the feel for it ahead of time.
The site offers a full 360 degree view of the phone, visual instruction guides so you know what you’re doing, and, of course, the emulator itself. Now, I’ve got to say, I tried this and if I wasn’t sure what to think of the G1. I just don’t know if this would sway me into buying it. It’s not that I think the G1 might not be a great phone, but because the emulator, itself, is pretty buggy and several features don’t work right.
Several places do offer up the warning “This screen is not fully functional.” Other places that aren’t fully functional don’t come with the nice little warning. Nonetheless, at least it does give you an idea of what the G1 is all about. As a side note, no, the GPS is obviously absent, so forget about playing with that feature for now. You’ll have to hold out until the 22nd.
