Google Nexus Phone
Google Nexus Phone has been unveiled! This phone is touted as a competitor of the IPhone. This is the internet giants first venture in the smart phone arena. I've feel like I'm letting one of my children out of the nest with this announcement. My husband works for Qualcomm, the creators of the hardware. He was on the design team and spent time on site working directly with Google. After all the overtime I'm glad to see the announcement.What makes this phone different? Watch the CNBC video below. The biggest change the Google Nexus Phone offers is the pricing options.
$179 with a two year contract with T-Mobile
OR, and this is a big OR
Pay a flat fee of $529 for open service. This means you choose your own provider.This is the economical way the European market provides cell phone service. Consumers own their phone and select their own provider without lengthy contracts. Consumers have choice without penalty. What a concept, competition without penalty. I'm hoping this way of cell phone ownership catches on on the US.
Finally, the Google Nexus Phone will be offered to Verizon users this Spring under the name Nexus II.
Hmmm...Isn't that when the IPhone is rumored to end it's exclusive contract with AT&T?
