Google refuses to comment on rumors about the launch of MVNO

Yesterday on TechCrunch ( www.techcrunch.com ) there was information that Google is going to enter the cellular market by launching its own mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) in the UK using O2 network, Nokia, Nokia shop and its own software. In response to this message, the UK PR team Google said: "We do not comment on rumors." Over the past year, a lot of rumors about Google projects have appeared in the press - a phone from Google, a deal with Orange and developments in the field of touch displays. In practice, all these messages were just rumors.

The fact is that Google has no mobile software, with the exception of Google Maps and the Gmail client, the company does not have a serious mobile platform, such as Yahoo's Go 2.0. All that Google has is trimmed versions of key web services (search engine, news service, mail and Reader for reading rss feeds). Most likely, Google, as Yahoo has already done, will continue to improve the mobile versions of its services, simultaneously concluding agreements with operators on placing links to their portals in cell phones.

A link on the phone from Google - rumors or reality?
