Google enters mobile phone market

People will be able to access Google maps and Google Earth on their mobile phones from as early as next year, the world's largest search engine has announced.

Google has joined forces with some of the biggest handset makers to allow all of its applications to be installed on mobile phones.

News that the multi-billion dollar company is entering the lucrative mobile phone market comes only days before the UK launch of Apple's eagerly-awaited iPhone.

There had been widespread rumours that Google was developing its own handset, known as the Google phone or Gphone, to rival Apple's combined phone, iPod and internet browser.
