Google Mail, Google Calendar, Google Docs, Google Talk, Google Search, Google Chrome, Google Tasks, Google Goggles, Google Wave, and now Google Wave... Is there anything that doesn't do that helps me manage my life?
I'm going to upgrade from my E71 in the summer... I was thinking either iPhone or Android... I think the choice I should make is pretty obvious.
@Edobe Ugh, the last thing I want to deal with is itunes, or any music player that acts like it. Not having to use itunes is a selling point/feature, not a bad thing.
Faster network? No. Better hardware? In some ways but not others. It's a bit faster than the iPhone 3GS but not much. The camera is worse, the design is worse, and the point was Google services, not the hardware. Have you read any reviews comparing the two? Nobody came out and said the Nexus was a better phone, because the iPhone still does a lot of things right that the Nexus doesn't.
Again, the point is that most of Google's services are also available on the iPhone, which means that it's not as much of a selling point for the Nexus as you think it is.

*and now Google Buzz
@Butler Nexus One seems like the clear choice.
@TheHypnotist
Just like most of Google's services, Buzz works on the iPhone too. Read the article.
@Jack : Yeah, but it's all about seamless, native integration between google services and the mobile os... Android cannot be beat in that regard.
@Butler Agreed. All they need now is a Googletunes to replace iTunes and maybe a gPod and then it will be a no brainer
@Jack Iphone can't touch the nexus one in regards to the integrated google services.
@stabbytheicepic
None of that changes the simple fact that most of those services can still be accessed on the iPhone.
@Jack Except the nexus one is better hardware on a faster network :P
