Let’s see how well the sarcasm comes across in this post.
In a Fierce Wireless interview dated earlier today, T-Mobile let slip a real doozy. Apparently the 4th largest carrier in the US is not going to rest on the laurels of the G1. That’s right, there are going to be more phones in the G series.
Our primary focus is consumer-based devices. As the year progresses there will be a significant ...

T-Mobile Confirms More G-Series Phones in ‘09

Gee, you don’t say? Neville Ray, T-Mobile (NYSE: DT)’s senior VP of Engineering and Operations promises that we’ll be seeing more Android handsets this year, alongside a “significant number of HSPA-capable smart phones” and “a data card product” within “the coming weeks and months.” It would have been a little anticlimactic if T-Mobile stopped at the G1, huh? We’re still eyeballing Mobile World Congress to show off a bunch of new Android handsets, and it’s wholly possible the G2 (a.k.a HTC Sapphire) will be among them.

T-Mobile Confirms: More Google Phones Coming This Year (GOOG)
Silicon Alley Insider —
Will more Google-powered phones help T-Mobile grow faster?
An exclusive on Google's (GOOG) first phone didn't exactly set the carrier on fire this past Christmas: T-Mobile said yesterday that Q4 subscriber growth slowed more than one-third from 2007, to 621,000 net new customers.
But maybe people just weren't inspired with the HTC G1 and are waiting on new Google (GOOG) phones.
Either way, more are on the way, T-Mobile exec Neville Ray confirmed to FierceWireless.

T-Mobile VP: More G-Series Smartphones Planned

T-Mobile's Neville Ray, senior vice president of engineering and operations at the carrier, said that as the year progresses, the company aims to release more G-series smartphones like the Android-powered G1—as well as other HSDPA-capable models for its fledgling 3G data network, according to FierceWireless.
Ray also said in the interview that so far, the carrier has rolled out 3G services to 130 cities in 27 markets, though he didn't give specifics. Back in December, HTC (the company that builds the G1 for T-Mobile) projected that they would sell one million of the handsets last year. Samsung also announced plans to sell an Android-powered smartphone.
