T-Mobile to sell Android G1 across Europe

The Android G1 phone which is available in US and the UK since October 2008 will now be sold across Europe in the coming weeks. “We will introduce the G1 by Jan. 30 in the Netherlands, Czech Republic and Austria,” T-Mobile Chief Executive Hamid Akhavan said on Monday. The Android-based phone will be available in Germany on Feb. 2 and in Poland later that month, Akhavan said.
T-Mobile sells the G1 phone for $179 with a two-year contract in the United States and a T-Mobile USA executive has said an estimate of 400,000 phones sold by the end of 2008 in the United States was “not incredible”.
Akhavan declined to disclose precise numbers but said the G1 was the most successful phone ever sold in the United States.
“We have sold several hundred thousand phones. Sales have clearly exceeded our expectations,” Akhavan said.
In Germany the phone will sell for 1 euro ($1.33) in combination with a two-year contract with T-Mobile.
