I see the consortium list but can't you say the same for 75% of that list on a Dell computer? Most of that list is just chip sellers who will make them for anyone who can pay or do volume. Google is trying to take point on this. It is being marketed as their phone.
Yep, does that all out of the box. Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizone (maybe ATT too) all carry and market HTC phones.

Here's the Sprint Touch, you've probably seen them...just haven't heard of the company:



Google is marketing at least 1 phone. I doubt it will have parts from HTC, LG and Motorola phones. These companies have a stake in this consortium so that they can use this OS on their hardware too. It's not tied to one single "Google Phone".

HTC makes some kickass phones - http://www.htc.com/www/default.aspx
