Simeon Simeonov has an excellent write up on the recent Google Phone rumors that have been buzzing around the blogosphere over the past day or so. In short, the recent Google acquisitions and partnerships, coupled with the Google & Orange talks and Google & Samsung partnership, with some insider information – leads him and others to believe Google is working on a mobile phone.

Simeon believes this phone will be “Blackberry-like,” running a flavor of Linux for the OS, with Java running on a C++ core, vector-based presentation methods and services such as VOIP and more (all of Google Apps?). See the roundup of discussion at Techmeme.
