    If Google really wanted to kick ATT and Apple in the balls, they would make an 850/1900 3g model and give it away to ATT customers who sent their existing phone in. That might show ATT that we really would care for an android instead of iphone.

      right, and if google sent me clean toilet paper for my used stuff, that would save like a gazillion trees.

      seriously though, how would google handing free phones to at&t users “show ATT that we really would care for an android instead of iphone”? really, i’m missing something here.

      maybe you meant to say that we send in IPHONES not just any old phone, because otherwise it’s really just saying, “android isn’t worth a penny to me but i’d love a free one”!

      even if you meant “iphone” you’re missing a critical point: at&t owns you if you’ve got an iphone.

      want to send a msg to at&t? pay out the ass for a phone and don’t give them any bit of the $$$. buy an unlocked phone and use it on their network, taking advantage of 3g uncapped mobile highspeed goodness while paying only a paltry $15/mo. watch iphone users squirm as they describe how they pay $30/mo for the same thing. msg to AT&T: you’re users aren’t cheap, they’ll spend lots of cash, but not on your crappy phones and not on your stupidly priced data rates.

      keep the msg fresh if/when they decide to increase your data costs by saying, “well, i’m not on contract so i guess i can take my business AND MY PHONE elsewhere. thanks for being a dumb pipe, even though you weren’t willing at the time”.

      good luck. and if you dont like this msg just show put me in my place by accepting something free from someone else whilst still reading my msg…..

    unbelievable! vz gets the droid, but hints the passion- delayed. then google says we got a flagship device and vz says no thank you; we’ll stick to shorthanding our customers like usual. VZ if you’re going to increase unfair ETF fees & strip us of our paychecks with surgage/ service fees, the least you can do is offer us the best devices. How about you quit wasting money on lame commercials and offer a wider variety of phones- you sob!! can anyone that works for vz read consumer reports!!?!? I HATE YOU BIG RED!

      Sheesh… what a waste of space, all you whiners complaining about lack of coverage or signal in your area.

      Guess what?! Every carrier has signal problems in certain areas.

      If you can’t get a particular carrier’s signal, do what I do. It’s quite simple and easy to do. Sign up with a carrier whose signal can be received.

      Oh, and I can’t stand the other whining group, those who feel shortchanged because their carrier won’t be getting a phone they want.

      Who gives a rats pitoot that you can’t get a phone. Like the coverage whiners, either stay put and buy what your carrier sells, or switch to another, so you can get the phone you want. (A dumb move to do that, but go ahead, so you can stay consistent, dumb and a whiner.)

    Nice phone. However, does anybody really thinks it will be a Google phone? All these rumors seem to be a campaign, most likely the phone will be released under HTC logo. Any Android phone may be called as “Google phone”. Just a casuistry which creates the intrigue.

      The 4 color boot up screen matching the Chrome/google colors makes me think that it is going to be an actual “google” phone.

        What makes it an “actual” Google phone? The G1 says “Powered by Google” on the back. Isn’t that a Google phone?

            They call them “Google” phones because the run the AndroidOS which was developed by google. Any device running the AndroidOS could technically I guess be considered a “Google” phone. HTC made the hardware, Google developed the software.

      I’m a Droid user… and I think that phone looks pretty bad ass. I’m glad that it appears T-Mo is getting the largest benefits from it. But I’m sad that T-Mo is so far behind everyone on 3G rollout and likely will be behind on the 4G, which may mean this phone can’t reach the heights it should… but their 3.5G might just be good enough to play catch up properly moving forward.

      • 1700mhz_LTE says:

        Technicaly Tmobile isnt behind anymore, its pretty much passed at&t because not only are they getting 7.2mbps rolled out first but next year were getting HSPA+. As far as LTE, that isnt gonna mean much because the technology hast been standardized yet so LTE is still in the testing phases. (There trying to optimize it and find a way to make calls using it so every company in the world will be on the same standard) Also Verizon wants to deploy it next year but is they do mange that, theyre not gonna have cellphones to use the tech until 2012 or 2013. Pretty by then LTE tech will be way cheaper and Tmobile will deploy it super fast.

        • T says:

          Yeah, that’s the word on the street… but it’d be painfully easy to make a cell phone with LTE for data-only, as 1x is still the best voice network in our country.

    This is a beautiful phone, i currently own a rooted g1 with android 2.0, thank you cyanogen and others who contributed to being able to make the G1 a very powerful smartphone, but the Nexus one is beautiful. I want a droid badly, but verizon data and voice plans are through the roof, and they dont even include unlimited texting to any network..droid and Verizon does but T-mobile and the Google Phone will do it better!!!

    Of all the crap I just finished reading (posts) more than 50% was false info, or retarted blasts against carriers because you think you are not gonna get this phone (or something like it). All I can say is, just wait!! GSM boys got their info. Time will tell who got pissed off for no reason. Late

    from all the ‘news’ that’s been going around, i m beginning to think the Google is just helping HTC to test the phone. probably HTC and Google is just working very closely on this project.

    Nexus One could be just the name of a project… after all, nexus means something like linking a series of things or convergences.

    maybe this is where everything starts to come together… but what everything? ;)

    Something I wrote for you all to read, when you’re not bombarded with the onslaught of neXus info.

    ‘Twas the night before neXus, when all through the house

    Not a gadget was stirring, not even a mouse;

    The cords were plugged in the outlet with care,

    In hopes that neXus ONE soon would be there;

    The iPhones were nestled all snug in their beds,

    While visions of apple-cores danced in their heads;

    And Apple in her ‘kerchief, and Steve in his cap,

    Had just settled down for a long winter’s nap,

    When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,

    iPhones sprang from bed to see what was the matter.

    Away to the window they flew like a flash,

    Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.

    The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow

    Gave the luster of noon to all objects below,

    When, what to their wondering apps should appear,

    But Google itself, and new mobile phone gear,

    With a snappy new dragon, so lively and quick,

    I knew in a moment it must be neXus.

    More rapid than eagles the screens they did change,

    Google whistled, and shouted, and changed the phone game;

    “Now, fanboys! now, Googlers ! now, loyalists please listen!

    I’ve got a new phone, it’s the one you’ve been missing!

    To the end of the state! to the end of it all!

    Now call away! call away! call away all!”

    Puny phones that came before, oh my how they’d fly,

    To the trashcans, garbage pails, all sitting outside,

    So to the end of the world all people rejoiced,

    With a beautiful new phone they let out their voice.

    Then, in a twinkling, iPhones heard through the news

    The neXus was coming, and they each sang the blues.

    As they folded their hands, and were leaving this town,

    Through the door came little neXus with a great sound.

    He was dressed in colors from his LED to his Mic,

    And his screen was all smudgy with prints and the like;

    A bundle of apps he had waiting inside,

    And he looked like a savior, with which we could fight.

    His screen — how it twinkled! his camera what might!

    His rocker was solid, his sensors just right

    His style was cool, it was a style for all

    Though his style would be better, during the Fall;

    The warmth of his OLED, projected like heat

    And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath;

    He had a plain face and a little round belly,

    Shone bright when called, happy, you jiggled like jelly.

    He was so thin and then some, it was brand new gear,

    iPhones laughed when they saw him, though they really felt fear;

    A click of his camera the flash it appeared,

    Soon made the iPhones know they failed with him here;

    He spoke words for all his apps, and began his job

    And filled all the stockings; with his personal mob,

    And laying his screen, so that all may watch the view

    A hi-def parody of that awful New Moon

    He sprang to his virtual feet, and bid goodbye,

    But would return soon, perhaps a date with a 5

    But I heard him exclaim, as he flew out of sight,

    “Happy neXus to all, and to all a good-night.”

    The side profile shot shows the trackball protruding quite a bit from the face of the device. As a former BB owner, I can say with conviction that trackballs fail. The newer, optical ones are superior, if for no other reason because there are no moving parts to clog/get dirty.
