Another point with the N1 end is that it is the only phone running Android 2.2 (without hacked roms). This means that there are no phones a customer can buy to get Android 2.2 now.
Android is a great platform and I've been seeing more and more of them in the hands of people in the wild. But it's still a battle to tame the cell phone market as well as compete in the luxury smart phone category that Apple has captured.
- igorgue 16y agoPeople use Android phones without even knowing it has Android on it!, I think that's the ultimate goal, like Linus says: The OS should be invisible to the user.
- rbranson 16y agoThis is part of what makes Android marketing so challenging. You've got Samsung, Motorola, HTC, etc adding their own flavor to the OS on top of multiple handset vendors with a variety of devices. Nobody knows they run "iOS" on their iPhone, but in order to make an informed comparison of Android devices, they must be familiar with the OS.
- ZeroGravitas 16y agoIt's the only phone running 2.2 (without community support) right now. There's plenty of phones that you can buy right now that have 2.2 upgrades in the pipeline, and you can still buy the Nexus one in many countries other than the US.
