HTC Dream, the much talked about handset that runs on Google's Android platform and that is prepared by T-Mobile for a US release, will come in a banana-shaped case - a form factor that some of Motorola's phones (Z8, Z10) are famous for.

Of course, unlike the aforementioned Moto handsets, the Android one has a full QWERTY keyboard and a touchscreen display, but the resemblance between them is still obvious when they're viewed from the sides.

According to a recently leaked image, found over at Androidguys, the Dream not only has the mentioned shape, but it will also have no less than three famous logos on it: T-Mobile (on the front case, above the display), HTC (on the back of the display, visible only when the handset is slid) and Google (visible all the time on the back case of the device).

The new handset might actually be named "T-Mobile G1" or "HTC G1" (G obviously representing Google) and not "HTC Dream", but we should wait for official details to emerge in order to be sure of its name.

If we were to believe the latest-appeared rumors, T-Mobile USA might get official with the Dream / G1 in September. Besides coming with the open source Android OS and a touchscreen display, the new HTC should also bring the following: GSM and 3G connectivity, internal GPS, advanced Web capabilities, a 3 Megapixel camera and so on. The price of the handset is said to be of $399, but it is not clear yet whether this will be the retail price or the one available with a T-Mobile contract agreement.

Anyway, what's clear is that the Dream is real (regardless of its final and official name), and mobile users across the US will soon be able to have it for themselves. We can only hope that the handset will not disappoint (and it shouldn't, since HTC and Google are involved in its making).
