There’s a lot of hyperventilating today about Google’s new phone, the Nexus One. From early pictures it looks slick; I’ve heard it described as “an iPhone on steroids.”
The biggest news: you can buy a Nexus One that isn’t tied to any particular carrier. This may shift the ground underneath telecom market in the US, where we’re used to buying phones tied to specific carriers. And I guess it’s good news for AT&T, who at least shouldn’t have to worry about too many more self-induced PR fiascos.
But there’s more great news, and I haven’t heard any of the pundits address this in any detail. Finally, it looks like there’s serious competition for the iPhone. And that’s wonderful because much as I love my iPhone, there are many ways the software could be even better. It could be easier to run multiple apps and navigate directly to them once they are running. I wouldn’t mind some simple shortcuts that get me straight to my frequently used apps without having to bounce back to the home screen, either. (For example, let me navigate right from email to a contact so I can grab their phone number and add it to the message.)
What about you? Are you craving a Nexus One? Do you love your Droid? Would you switch from an iPhone?
OP: I could be slow (lord knows I have been told lol) but that made absolutely no sense what so ever…
Hello, good looking layout you have here. I have to say that I enjoyed skimming through this piece. I by chance ran across it this afternoon and soon found that it was very worthwhile, so it led me to add a note. I have a feeling many will probably share your opinion about this theme. So, I’ll pay a visit soon when I make spare time to read more. This is funny, but I was just asking my room mate relating to this subject, so this post was timely. I’m pretty much jazzed I accidentally found this site, it has good energy. I will bookmark this site and find the feed too. Thanks have a good one.
