Nexus One Released on T-Mo, Verizon in Spring

It's here, finally, here.  The worst kept tech secret this year, the Nexus One, is here.  You can get it at google.com/phone, that's right, Google is selling this online-only for once.  Right now you can only get the device with T-Mobile for $170.00 or without a contract for a whopping $529.00.

It's really what we've come to expect from an Android device specs-wise, a 1 gHz processor, 5 megapixel camera, 3.7 inch capacative LCD screen.  But, one interesting thing, is unlike the iPhone it doesn't have a multitouch screen.  It does have a lot the iPhone 3GS doesn't though; LED flash, up to 4GB MicroSD card slot, and it can run on any network that uses a SIM Card.  So, I guess the 'Droid does...sort of...

What makes this phone unique, is the Android 2.1 software it runs, the "true" Android I wrote about earlier.
This is not much different then the 2.0 firmware the Droid uses, except it integrates Google Voice a lot more and is sleeker and prettier.

The Nexus One also has a 3D aspect to it, able to browse menus in 3D, hopefully developers will have access to this.  The Nexus One also has a Voice-To-Speech feature for every text field.  But, from what people are saying, its doesn't work as well as it should.

Ultimately, I don't think the Nexus One is the iPhone-Killer it was made out to be, but it is the best Android phone on the block right now and leads it one step closer to the iPhone's heels.  The Nexus One will land on Verizon this Spring.

RUMOR:Google Phone May be on the Horizon

No, I'm not talking about Google's Android OS. I'm talking about a full-fledged, Google made device. Sources from Gizmodo say that a Google-made Android based device is "a certainty". The sources also say that it is running a new version of Android "that has never been seen before".

First Look At Micosoft Pink Phones

These "leaked" pictures below show what Microsofts new line of phones, The Pink Phone, looks like.  It will be probably Microsoft's answer to the iPhone.   The phones, called Turtle and pure will be made by Sharp, the same company that made T-Mobile's Sidekick series.

Preordering for HTC Magic Begins from Vodafone

Exactly a month ago we wrote about the "G2", the HTC Magic. Well, while there is still no word on a US release date or even a name; Vodafone, the European carrier that will sell the Magic, has began taking preorders for the phone. The Magic will go for a whopping £0. The catch: You have to sign up for a £30 a month plan to start with, oh, and the plan can raise to any price they see fit. The Cupcake-powered HTC Magic will begin shipping out on May 5th.
