In the yet-another-Google-phone-rumor department, Rediff.com is reporting that Google is just "a fortnight away" from launching its Google Phone.

According to Rediff Google is in talks with service providers in India for an exclusive launch. The Gphone will launch simultaneously in the U.S. and Europe.

Color me skeptical on this one kids--apparently I'm not alone. Maybe it's the fact there's a Google Phone rumor every other week or so. Perhaps it’s the unnamed sources. Perhaps I'm just jaded.

According to Rediff.com Google only needs FCC approval and it's ready for lift-off. That's a pretty big hurdle for a launch that's supposed to happen real soon. And then there's the whole partnering with wireless carriers thing Google has to work out for the Gphone.

Stay tuned, but don't start camping out for the Gphone yet. You may be outside for a while.
