Hi,

> I'm just wondering, what do people see as the appeal of the Nexus One?

A developer perspective from Australia, currently with t-mobile G1 &
V1.6 (Optus 3g carrier).

For me it has been a tossup between waiting for Sony X10 and Nexus One
-

Sony X10: 8mp camera +, 854x480 +, TFT -, V1.6 -

Nexus One: 5mp camera -, 800x480 +, OLED +, V2.1 +

Droid is not an option for me as it is CDMA (only I think) and I do
wish to switch carriers. ( I think cdma is s u x anyway )

Nexus One is right now (for some), Sony X10 is still to come.

So with both G1 & N1 this spans more current android versions, I could
test across V1.6 and V2.1 ( with other access to V1.5 on a Hero )

Make sense ? ( and assuming V2.1 sdk is released soonish )

Regards
