Summary : they are the same hardware wise. The reviewer barely mentions software. And it's clear he never either device in real life. Not even from far away. Why is this even here?

also, forgot another regulation that contributes to this. if you get a new phone because of a 1 or 2yr contract, and you stay with that contract for the whole duration, at the end the operator must UNLOCK your phone for free.

never thought about that... but it that happens with the two stock chargers, the iphone wall charger, the desktop dock, and with the car charger and running the GPS app. the car charger+gps app is in fact the worst case, as it will not need

hum... you may want to check your facts. the desktop dock and car dock was discontinued what? 4 months after the launch? HTC only resumed selling 1.5yrs later. During that period the car dock was selling for $200 used on ebay. I have no ide

people don't buy phone without contract because they can't. The operators would be fools if they made that a good deal. In brazil it was like that. everyone bought phones along 2yr contracts "because they need to have a plan anyway". prices

that's choosing the lesser of two evils. my nexus one shows as green, yes, i have all the latest software, but no fix yet for the touchscreen issue. That alone would make the nexus one RED since launch on that table for me, as this hints to

if you understand what RMS wrote (cmon it was 5 lines) you can't say they both "profess an anti-dogmatic , against 1984 approach". jobs used that approach in marketing, for sheeples to buy apple instead of IBM. If you think (not even hard)

you paid the 30% 'out of dealer' devalorization, of a SL55 AMG, plus leasing profits which shouldn't have been easy for this kind of arrangement, times 9, to have 4 years of car without plates. do that math for that, smart guy, and i dare
