Anyone buy a Nexus One yet?
It just went on sale today and curious how many people were going to get it. I left ATT because of the price but still running my iphone. Just not sure if it is worth the 570 dolla

For that, I could buy a second iPhone. In fact, there's an app for that—buying a new iPhone.
I do like that this one is unlocked for all carriers, though. That is a very noteworthy feature.

It's $570 without a contract. Essentially when you buy a phone from your carrier they HEAVILY subsidize it and charge you extra for service in order to recover that subsidy. However, once the phone is paid off, your plan doesn't get cheaper.
And, the only carrier this device won't work on is Sprint since they have a strict policy against activating any device not sold by them. Not only that, but Sprint requires you to sign a contract regardless of whether you buy a new device or not, and is the only carrier to do so.

I'm kinda stuck with ATT because the Mobile Me service from apple is so important to us with our business. |

Probably about $20 a month of that goes to recovering the subsidy on your phone, but if you didn't buy a phone or you've already paid off the subsidy from them you're still paying that fee. T-Mobile has new plans that they call "Even More Plus" that are $80 a month, but you pay the FULL price for your phone either in one payment or monthly installments for 20 months, but once your phone is paid off, you stop paying that fee. If you cancel you don't pay an early termination fee, you pay for the remainder of your phone, and if you want an upgrade you can have it any time you want it, provided you pay off the rest of your first phone if it isn't already. Usually when you do the math you actually wind up paying LESS for the phone by paying full price than you would by accepting the initial discount with the higher rate plan.

Glad it was finally released. I got to play around with one of these a few weeks before christmas. Being anti AT&T, it's either this or the droid.
