The race to release new Android handsets has been a slow crawl, indeed. The deluge of new phone utilizing Google's open-source operating system has yet to surface in any way, beyond the multitude of promises from a number of phone and netbook manufacturers. T-Mobile, however, is reportedly working on its own follow up to the first--and still only--Android handset in the States, the G1.

According to The Wall Street Journal, more details about the handset--set to be called the myTouch 3G--will surface next week. Like its predecessor, the new phone will be designed by hardware manufacturer, HTC. The myTouch 3G will reportedly look a lot like the HTC Magic--with a touchscreen and no physical keyboard and a smaller body than the iPhone.

The phone's software will also feature some update, including a voice-activated search function. More details next week--probably.
