While many are anticipating the arrival of the new Google phone (the G1) it turns out that perhaps nobody anticipates its arrival more than the company putting it out: T-Mobile. In anticipation of the phone's October 22 release, T-Mobile has lifted the cap on its monthly data plan.

The amendment was made just one day after T-Mobile announced the G1 (the first smartphone to use Google's Android operating system). The T-Mobile G1 will combine touch-screen functionality, a QWERTY keyboard with popular Google products such as Google Maps Street View, Gmail and YouTube.

T-Mobile stated it reserves the right to slow down traffic for a "a small fraction of our customers who have excessive or disproportionate usage that interferes with our network performance."
