This morning kicks off a month-long cycle of mobile news with the two notable bookends being today\u2019s anticipated release of the Google (NSDQ: GOOG<\/a>) phone, and later this month, the potential unveiling of Apple\u2019s tablet. What lies between isn\u2019t trivial either \u2013 CES begins informally tomorrow and lasts until Saturday. You can follow both the Google event, live at 10 a.m. Pacific, and CES on mocoNews. Additionally, my colleague Staci Kramer will in Las Vegas for paidContent.org.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Today, at Google\u2019s Mountain View headquarters, the internet-search giant is extending its reach further into mobile. The company is expected to formally unveil the Nexus One, a phone that was passed out to all Google employees late last year and was quickly considered the famed \u201cGoogle phone.\u201d While it\u2019s unlikely that the name will continue on, Google plans to sell the device direct to consumers rather than through the traditional carrier partner. Initially, the business model was considered a game changer, but more recently, critics have pointed out that other phone manufactures have been unsuccessful at selling unsubsidized and unlocked phones in the U.S.<\/p>\n

Just as the dust settles on the Google news, CES will kick into full gear. The gigantic consumer-electronics show attracts hundreds of thousands of participants and exhibitors each year; it informally gets going on Wednesday and lasts until the weekend. The week is packed with back-to-back press conferences with big names on the calendar, like AT&T (NYSE: T<\/a>), Verizon Wireless, Motorola (NYSE: MOT<\/a>), Sprint (NYSE: S<\/a>) Nextel and Palm (NSDQ: PALM<\/a>). That\u2019s even before big keynotes, by, among others, Microsoft\u2019s Steve Ballmer, Intel\u2019s Paul Otellini, Nokia\u2019s Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo and Qualcomm\u2019s Paul Jacob.<\/p>\n
