Google Nexus One Phone Round Up Update
Dec 30th
Google is apparently having a big meeting January 5th. More than likely this will be the official introduction the newest version of Android and the Nexus One (aka Google Phone).
According to the recently discovered Terms of Sale pdf for the Google Phone it will sell unlocked for $429. It will be available through a carrier as a subsidized phone as well. So far T-Mobile is the only one mentioned. Of course if you sign up through TMo with the subsidized phone (2 year plan) and then cancel your contract you will be liable to Google for the subsidized amount, otherwise known as a product recovery fee.
Our take on the Nexus One/Google Phone: The sleek design will be a selling point for many. Many like their phone to look nice. Later on they will discover the power it has. On the subject of power, a 1GHZ Snapdragon processor may have been extreme 10 years ago when Google was first getting started but in our eyes that’s an expected development.
However, with more power, brighter screens and higher data speeds comes shorter battery life. Batteries haven’t seen significant advancements being brought to the general public in a long time. My expectation is that it’s going to be 2010, I should have a device that will last me through a long day of much use by now.
One thing that would be great is a solar panel screen, or back plate, so we have some method of charging it should we fall into a time portal.

Currently those speeds are being thrown around Philadelphia in a testing stage. Supposedly this coverage will coincide with the current 3G coverage that T-Mobile offers and more. I mean, can you imagine your phone downloading faster than your home PC? Thank goodness for 32GB microSDHC cards or we would run out of space to put all the movies we’re going to download. Oh did I forget to mention that this rollout is to precede AT&T’s 7.2MBPS rollout? Yeah, that’s right, we’ll see it by the end of 2010, just in time for Jupiter to ignite into a second sun.
