Apparently the Nexus One is dead.

I compiled an incredible pbx here at home, now I’m looking for a good wifi/cellphone (that is not an iPhone) to take advantage of it. Any new suggestions?

[WM: Nexus One will live on. Just won’t be marketed by Google any longer. Sprint’s HTV Evo 4G would be our next pick. And, there’s a new one from Samsung coming soon.]

Thanks.

PS: Is T-Mobile 3G really that bad that I should stay away from it?

You will be derided harshly in secret and subtly in public. I, too, will mock you into helping you escape from yourself.

Cloud computing it not a new concept: Beowulf + NAS.

Google will have another dimension of frightening with which to profi… interact with you: GeoIP location + GPS + tower triangulation. What could possibly go wrong there?

@sheeple

try to remember google is an AD serving company first.. now think really hard: why might they encourage people to use as many "free" google services as possible?

Apple, through non-itard users, few though they are, is learning about the fun of class action lawsuits.

Locking a device to a particular mobile provider does not appear to be in the spirit of FCC mandated Open Access does it?

Verizon has already lost a phone claim class action lawsuit (v710).

Why would I want to buy a "smart phone" that I have little or no intention of using email- or web on SINCE they MANDATE a $30 upgrade penalty (required data package)

What if a parent didn’t want a child having internetty phone? Too bad.. still "get to" pay the verizon smart phone data penalty.

Yeah… that’s going over oh so well

Can I haz free markt?

Isn’t the word "phone" in the title of this article?

_differences between Apple and Google philosophically_

The latter hides behind the ever evolving "do no evil", bearing more similarity to witchcraft than the Hippocratic oath. The former makes the notion of "walled garden" seem like a hallucination.

However, one thing struck me about this piece: you make no mention of the incompatibility of Nexus One with the AT&T 3G! (Although, you did mention this band discrepancy for the HTC Magic overview and recommended the Rogers version of HTC Magic.)

This, in fact was the deal-breaker for me. I don’t want to deal with T-mobile’s network and coverage issues, thankyouverymuch. I would choose AT&T with their problems (at least for now). I am sure that there are others like me.

Until Nexus One becomes 3G triband (like the iPhone, which already is), I would hesitate getting this phone.

Otherwise, thanks for pumping out quality reviews. I will keep reading.

[WM: We’re actually using the Nexus One on AT&T’s 2G network. To be honest, we can’t tell any performance difference between the Nexus One at 2G speed and our iPhone at 3G speed. That speaks volumes about AT&T’s 3G network performance. 🙄 But, you’re right. We should have covered it in the article.]

[WM: We’ve had great VoIP calls and lousy ones. It all depends upon available bandwidth.]

[WM: Your quote is a little out of context, but folks can read the article and make their own judgment. As for reliability and support, it’s interesting that everyone seems to have forgotten the early problems with the iPhone and AT&T. Customer service was non-existent then, too. And, with AT&T at least, it really hasn’t changed much in three years. As for Apple support, you might want to take a long look at this thread on Apple’s support forum before choosing Apple based upon their fine customer service. 🙂 Bottom Line: They’ve all got their crosses to bear.]

Does that kind of integration works the same with SipDroid? It doesn’t work that way with external applications like Fring for instance..

[WM: You can choose whether to make a cell or SIP call by adding a + to the number for SIP. Not quite as polished as the Nokia E71 implementation, however. Google Voice on the other hand works almost exactly like the Nokia E71 to place outbound calls through GV.]

It pains me that I can’t use it. Until battery technology takes another significant leap ahead it’s back to Blackberry for me.

[WM: If your phone made it ’til 8 p.m., you had a good day. Everyone will have charging cradles with these new superphones, I’m afraid.]

[WM: No argument there.]

[WM: SIP works great. Just download SipDroid from the Google Marketplace. With Android 2.1, you can permanently configure your FQDN into SipDroid and it still works fine with WiFi on your local LAN behind a NAT router.]
