T-Mobile is said to be hard at work with HTC on a netbook running the Android operating system, which should be out later this year.

T-Mobile and HTC have far and away the most joint experience in producinig and selling working Android systems – the G1 has been a resounding success and both companies are planning more Android phones this year. Who better, then, to put together an Android netbook?

T-Mobile fansite (the mind boggles) TMOToday has had an anonymous tip-off that such a device is in the works. The unnamed netbook will run Android, and have built-in 3G broadband (and presumably wifi too).

This certainly isn’t the first Android netbook being lined up for release, but hopefully T-Mobile and GHTC will be able to pull this off with siome style and make something really special. Given that HTC already produces a Vista-powered netbook called the HTC Shift and T-Mobile flogs Asus Eee PCs with their 3G broadband dongles. It looks like a no-brainer to us.
