Even though T-Mobile's G1 with Google is not yet available in shops, gossip has already turned to which manufacturer will be next to market with an Android device.

Recent reports suggested that Sony Ericsson is considering the platform, while in wider global terms, China Mobile is said to be readying an HTC-made model, but TechCrunch suggests it could be Motorola:

"One of the original partners in the Open Handset Alliance behind the open-source mobile OS, Motorola already has 50 people on its Android team and is growing that to 350, according to an Android developer approached by a headhunter to join the team. That is a huge commitment that shows how big a bet Motorola is making on Android."
