New Android Version for Nexus One may change my mind about "Jumping Ship"

[Amber Lamps]

Supposedly, it makes the Nexus One run 450% faster, has Flash support, supports tethering and mobile hotspot, allows you to download apps to the sd card, etc... Of course it's available for the N1 first. I may wait until the update to possibly update to the HTC Evo 4g. I really want that HUGE screen but if they can get the N1 to run better, I may save my money.

Dont forget over the air sync with your desktop

Is 4g even available where you live? It isn't here.

That's frozen yogurt, it's not due out til the 2nd half of the year and it will be available for all 2010 released android phones including the EVO and the Incredible.

I wouldn't follow the washington post's comments about it.

To be honest, we don't even get 3g here!!! I don't care about that, I really only care about the large screen and some of the other internal features. Of course, with the update, several of the features that are available on the EVO will be available on the Nexus One so...

Have you messed with an Android HTC phone? I suggest you go play with an incredible in a Verizon store if you can find one. HTC Sense adds a lot to the Android OS. The Nexus One will never have HTC Sense. I say wait out for the EVO and get it.

The EVO and the Nexus One will both have Android 2.1. They won't be really any different until the 2.2 update and they still will both get 2.2. The difference will be the HTC Sense stuff.

I've actually seen a N1 running Sense. There's no real reason that it can't port it.

These devices perform poorly 99% of the time.

Ah but not everyone is in love with HTC Sense.... remember, I just sent a HD2 back. I wasn't super happy with Sense, I understand that was on WinMo but still.... We'll see, trust me 2.2 will show up on N1 before anyone else, which will give me a chance to try it out. As pointed out, I don't get 3g much less 4g so that doesn't really impress me. All of the features will be the same between the phones minus the 8M camera, 1.3M shot camera and the huge screen. The main reason I may change is that T-Mobile coverage isn't very good here, Sprint is only slightly better...
