Oh, who cares? I'm excited for the EVO 4G. That's the only phone on my radar at the moment, unless Sprint somehow picks up the HD2, and then I can get a ported version of WP7 on it. ]]>Mar 29th 2010 7:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/its not gettin released on verizon. i kno]]>Mar 29th 2010 8:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/im really surprised Google doesnt throw the N1 on all the carriers at the same time! why not?

Sprint is not nearly as bad as everyone says.

I haven't had a dropped call in almost a year's timespan, and that's traveling all over, even places that only have one bar.

And when in doubt, I roam for free on Verizon. So, your commentary doesn't really matter here.]]>Mar 29th 2010 8:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/

You and me both, that's exactly what I was thinking :D

My contract with Verizon ends in February (I have a dumbphone for $15 a month or something ridiculously low like that) and I've been using an unsubsidized G1 on T-Mo as my main phone for the last 2 months. Even though the service where I live isn't so hot (barely get Edge and no 3G at all), I love Android and I really enjoy flashing roms and themes. I'm curious to try out Sprint since it's cheaper per month than Verizon and I'd roam Verizon's network for free :D Also, I'd get an EVO...mmmmm....]]>Mar 29th 2010 9:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/Mar 29th 2010 11:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/

Alot needs to be done for it to work, the screenvis nowhere near as responsive as the Fruit phone, and is absolutly useless outside as well. Touch sensitve buttons are horrible, and the ear piece volume is a straight joke. In an empty room the volume is still low, imagine every day normal use. And to be honest, I like sense on top of android a whole lot better. Plus the whole order through Google thing suxxxxx!

My advice hold out for the Desire, and that sexy beast the EVO! Both will be running a new version of HTC sense and look pretty Awesome. I would learn towards the EVO cause it's similar to the HD2, which i love, and has a more friendly ever day screen material compared to that of the Desire which uses the same technology as the Nexus!

Ehh, VZW can keep that incredible! Especially since the word is that the Amazing Snap Dragon has been underclocked to 700! What a rape on speed and performance.. ]]>Mar 29th 2010 7:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/
So many things wrong with your whine-fest.

1 - The Desire has the same screen and same earpiece as the Nexus, so out goes your griping about said items. If you hated them on the N1, you'll hate them on the Desire.

2 - My N1's screen is sensitive to the slightest contact. I'd suggest if you don't return it for another phone, contact support because you have a dud. Same with the capacitive buttons.

3 - I had my old Touch Pro and Nexus One outside at the same time. They both sucked. The AMOLED-Sunlight bandwagon is stupid. The HD2 and EVO will have the same inherent issues because ALL current AMOLED devices have them. Oh and get used to that ish because everyone's moving to AMOLED before they get Super-AMOLED, unless you're Samsung.

4 - The earpiece is loud as shit, I have zero idea who you can't hear it.

5 - Sense is available via Modaco's firmware, which also gets you root access the himem kernel, and undervolt. Everything works with the exception of flaky bluetooth. How did you not know there was no SenseUI BEFORE you bought this phone if it were such a dealbreaker?

6 - If you were apprehensive about ordering through Google, why did you bother? You're going to have to eat a restocking fee when you return the device.

Doesn't even fly.]]>Mar 29th 2010 8:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/
My whine fest? Look at yours u clown! And no the Evo does not come with an AMOLED Mr know it all, so u do your homework! And do a search on low ear piece volume, it's well documented. And i did call Google support, they said there working on a fix for the WELL KNOWN LOW VOLUME issue.

Even further, who wants to deal with sending stuff back and dealing with Fed Ex, when I could just sit back and wait for some better products to hit the stores this summer.

As for the Incredible being underclocked. That's completely bogus. The processor doesn't work that way. It is not available at lower clock speeds. It does however automatically scale the processor speed based on the current load so if it's not fully loaded and someone were to check the current clock speed it could show lower then the rated speed.]]>Mar 29th 2010 12:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/Mar 29th 2010 1:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/Mar 29th 2010 5:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/That's correct my friend]]>Mar 29th 2010 9:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/29/verizons-nexus-one-could-be-arriving-by-the-end-of-next-week/
