A T-Mobile senior product manager, revealed that the Android-based G1 Phone is still on track to ship on October 22 and that, by the time it does, the number of third-party apps in Google's Android Marketplace will amount to approximately 50. T-Mobile demonstrated three of those Android apps “BreadCrumbz, ShopSavvy, and Ecorio” at a pre-launch event for customers and the press in New York City.

Breadcrumbz is designed to let you navigate a route to a friend's house or elsewhere by looking at pictures, either just pictures by themselves, or in conjunction with a map.
