T-Mobile G1 spotted in the wild (again)

More live shots of T-Mobile's G1, aka the HTC Dream, have leaked out of Google.  Leaked to Rizzn at Utterli from an unnamed internal source at Google, the handset in question was apparently being used by a tester as his primary handset.More images after the cut

While no new details about the device have leaked out with the images, they do confirm just how close to the Sidekick the handset appears when used in horizontal mode with the QWERTY keyboard.  It also gives a sense of proportion that has so far been absent; unless the tester has abnormally large or small hands, the G1 doesn't look as massive as some of the early leaked shots might have suggested.

It remains to be seen whether the pronounced "chin" section gets in the way of typing (Sidekicks usually have a bevelled edge either side of the keyboard, whereas on the G1 it's more blunt) but this confirms that the device is in the wild and good enough to be used as a sole handset.  Android Community will be Live Blogging the T-Mobile G1 announcement on Tuesday September 23rd (next week), so join them there for the full event!
