T-Mobile's G1 mobile phone debuted last week and critics have been quick to compare it with Apple's iPhone and RIM's BlackBerry. However, because there are many omissions, shortcomings and flat-out disappointments in Google's first foray into the mobile phone market, the G1 and Google Android aren't faring too well. Here's our round-up of the 10 biggest disappointments of the G1.
10. Multitouch MIA
A small oversight, but those familiar or in love with Apple's innovative multitouch interface will groan when they discover the same feature isn't present on the G1.
9. Accelerometer quirk The G1 includes an accelerometer, but it functions only when the keyboard flips out, not by tilting the device. So if you want to surf the web in widescreen, you must first double the size of your phone. Cosmetic differences such as this could spell 'selling point' or a 'walk-away'.

Kind of reminds me of when the iPhone was launched and all the disappointment back then, only I seem to remember the list having more than 10 items on it!

TBH the design leaves a lot to be desired, but I am wholy impressed with the way Google has brought a lot to BlackBerry and can only imagine they will take that a lot further with their own platform, but I think I'll wait for the G2!
