I couldn't agree with y'all more. BUT!!!!!

Verizon IS getting the Nexus One.

Since I bought the Droid, I WILL be paying the $600 for the N1. The stutter on the Droid is getting more and more irritating. The silence from VZW about updates, when even Sprint is communicating with their customers, is down right wrong. With the N1, Google hands out the updates, by-passing the carrier. Yep, paying full price is worth the freedom.

Well Said.

What you wrote is a excellent summary of how people feel about Verizon.  Great map, Great Service...........no phones worthly of the Map & Service.

I will not buy a new phone form Verizon, rather I will buy a reconditioned Blackberry  off of Ebay while I wait for N1 or N2

I would love to get a Nexus One BUT all support for the phone comes from Google at this point which seen very sub par. If something is wrong with your phone you do not have a local store, you will be mailing it out waiting for a replacement. I would prefer the HTC version Nexus One ( Desire or Incredible ) with support of my wireless company.

At this point, the only thing we can do is wait....and wait......and wait.........and wait. I agree with another poster that no one in power at Verizon reads these boards or cares about what we want. The problem that we're complaining about right now isn't new. It's been like this for years. Why? Do they really not realize how ticked off we are about this? Sure they do; they just don't care. They're still making money. It irritates me to no end that the Nexus One, arguably the most revolutionary phone since the iPhone, was released on T-mobile first. Freakin' T-mobile!! Maybe by the time T-Mobile, AT&T, and Sprint have all rolled out the Nexus 2, Verizon will consider giving us the Nexus One. I'm so tired of waiting for Verizon to do nothing.

If no one reads these boards, maybe we should take the fight to the man.  Start bombarding headquarters with phone calls: 

                     Verizon:  212-395-1000

I am due for an upgrade.  After my toddler has so kindly dunked my Blackberry in water and threw it against a wall, I need a new phone.  I am eligible for an upgrade.  I am going crazy waiting for the new HTC Incredible.  Verizon needs to give it's customers something!  I can wait to find out the official specs of the phone if they would just give me a date or even a decent time frame to look forward to!  I would settles for the 2nd half of March.  SOMETHING PEOPLE!

I have a feeling that Verizon is deliberately stalling with this so they can milk the Moto Droid for all they can. That's their flagship phone right now.

They could be trying to milk the Moto Droid (and Droid ERIS ), but I suspect that they know that a huge number of people are waiting for a phone like the Nexus One ( or similar HTC phone ) phone on the Verizon network.  I personally think that they are a little worried that the network can't take the strain.  The huge success of the iPhone nearly crippled the AT&T network...

The Nexus One presents a problem for Verizon because it is an open source phone, Verizon will not be able to control the content that people want.  For example, Flash 10.1 is coming to the 2.1 Android phones soon.  Google is certainly going to release it on the Nexus One.  However, Verizon could block the update on the Droid if they feel like streaming video might eat up too much band width...

Anyway, that is my opinion on why there seems to be never ending delays and total lack of any kind of formal schedule for updates or new phone announcements.

Are you kidding? For what? So that they can kill you with so much anticipation, that when you get that phone, two months later you'll be complaining because a better phone is out?

No. In fact, releasing release dates/specs would be beneficial to them, as it would concrete people's desire and promise to buy their phones.

It's time that people got over their paranoia and just be patient.

Is it possible they are leaking information to get consumer feedback so they can make some final tweaks?
