A Nexus smartphone? Is that a Nexus One?? I've never heard of this Nexus company or a device that "videotapes"... .

@zukny: What 4G network? Sprint has limited 4G coverage, but this device is only 3G capable... habre los ojos...

A kickstand and killer hardware to boot!

@cruzer555: You obviously haven't heard of what Gingerbread is rumored to do to Android (i.e. Android 3.0)...

I'll take Six Flags Magic Mountain any day over Disneyland. Disneyland is for girls...

@ninjacrusader: You can't be serious, right? You approve of cencorship?

@kissarmymax: No, those are macs...

My head hurts from all of this debating... ugh...

@Turkieshooter:

@Dancing Milkcarton: Not so... I've already had to correct quite a few people... older people and co-workers saying "I love the new iPhone 4G!"

@phinn: Android with Gingerbread is sure to make the decision hard (me thinks)

Our entire infrastructure would need to be retooled to handle this amount of data transfer, wouldn't it?

@blum0108: I wasn't being an apologist, but at the same time, I'm no xenophobe. I can recognize where the US lacks and excels at....

In the age of companies practicing strategic obsolescence, I find it difficult to see that. It would be like my father handing me down an Atari 2600. Nostalgia is great and all, but going from a PS3 to square blocks moving on the screen, that nostalgic impression would quickly wear off. That's what today's technology…

@NuevoLeon: I agree, this was never a Apple v. Android debate. I was commenting in the story saying howe I much preferred Android over the obviously stringent Apple so depicted in the article. While many of my posts are of android, this durer to my own personal story. I have been into smartphones for write some time…

@songs: HTC sent a CD letter to Conflipper since some off his ROMs used what HTC believed to be rip offs of their artwork (read: ripped the Sense UI). They were not trying to stop customization of their devices.

@NuevoLeon: I wasn't implying it was hard to jailbreak, only that with Android, there just doesn't seem to be this looming "Your warranty will go poof!"

@robotkiller: With the ease of rooting on Android (at least the latest models), it's easy to restore your device yourself if something goes wrong...

@Bag_of_tears: Did they change it?

@ArseneKarl: Bad analogy. Jailbreaking =/= "shredding"
