Google Phone Gets Plug on Search Home Page

By David LaGesse

Posted: October 22, 2008

You might wonder if the Google phone has enough to succeed. But consider the marketing power of the world's most popular search engine.

Google users today are greeted with a plug for the T-Mobile G1 placed strategically below the search box:

New! The G1 is on sale now. Learn about the phone.

Could any other phone maker afford that prime spot? We'll never know, 'cause Google ain't sellin'.
