In the same amount of time it took Apple to sell 1 million iPhones, Google only sold 135,000 of the Android-powered Nexus.

On July 16, the company announced that it received its final order from the phone’s manufacturer, HTC. The phone that was supposed to change the way you buy wireless phones. On release, the Nexus One was available in three different options. One was with a service contract with T-Mobile, one with Verizon & another option to buy it without a contract. Personally I loved the concept, many people are blinded by the subsidized price of cell phones & don’t realize how much they are actually paying. Besides the fact that the Nexus One, aesthetically, was my favorite Android phone.

On the positive side of that I think Google released this phone to give hardware companies like HTC & Motorola a outline on how to build Android phones.
