Google Android T-Mobile G1 jailbroken and uses Debian?

Google may have pushed out recent firmware updates for the Google Android T-Mobile G1, but it seems they weren’t quite quick enough for one hacker. Apparently Jay Freeman who just happens to be the author of such Apple iPhone programs as Cydia, Winterboard and Cycorder, has managed to get Debian running on the jailbroken T-Mobile G1.

The word is Debian and Android played along just fine with each other giving you a completely unassuming G1 by day but by night giving you a nerd G1 without losing any functionality.

Installation isn’t that easy as you would expect, but if you have the knowledge of installing Linux applications on other devices it shouldn’t be too difficult.

Too early to start talking about Google Android T-Mobile G2?

T-Mobile is thinking considerably ahead. Consumers haven't even had the chance to get hands on and to grips with the first Google Android smartphone, evaluating whether they've made great purchase or a horrible mistake, but there are already talks of a successor. It's thought T-Mobile will apply a bit of logic to the name by naming it the G2 (so as not to confuse the simpletons), but it's not definitely the G2 you're seeing in the picture. It could be, but as it's just a mock-up it's not a good idea to get attached to its gorgeous (and possibly fake) design.

Like most successors, the next generation Google Android smartphone is tipped to be a huge improvement on the original. It'll provide twice the screen resolution, tilting screen, interactive high speed widgets and much more space.

Your guess is as good as mine as to when we're going to hear about the G2 again. Perhaps when the G1 dust settles? What is for certain though, is T-mobile employees are going to be a bunch of busy bees over the next few months.
