I think it's great that this is happening to the Nexus One. It teaches Google a valuable lesson about trying to be all exclusive like Apple and so many people that want the phone but can't because of their ridiculous terms. Karma is a B. Sorry Google, love ya, but you're not Apple and you don't have to be...be GOOGLE!

Sure I went to community college. I get on here to post and have fun with it from time to time. I am sorry that there are people like you that need to get on to personally tear people down. Congratulations.

I think you need to check the dictionary and look up what exclusive means. How can Google be trying to be all exclusive when they planned on making the phone for EVERY carrier not just ONE like Apple? any body can buy the phone, you don't even need to tell them your carrier and they ship it UNLOCKED!! more i think about it, you really don't know anything about this do you?

Yes exclusive to the google.com/phone website. Not allowing the carriers to handle distribution directly but only allowing themselves to hold and sell the device as it's own entity.

any body can buy the phone, you don't even need to tell them your carrier and they ship it UNLOCKED!!


They still set agreements with the carriers for providing the phone and getting rights to distribute it under certain services. i.e. can ONLY get a discount through T-Mobile by THE requirement of signing up for the Even More 500 minute plan or any other GSM service (AT&T, Rogers) for FULL price.

more i think
