Yes, the N1 is a better phone than the Eris. Do you want a medal? Cookie, perhaps? Have fun with T-mobile, stop arguing things that shouldn't be argued.

I have had the eris since right before Christmas as I lost my previous phone (not smart phone) at the Atlanta Airport while traveling. My contract had expired and I went to Verizon to get a BB but bought the Eris because the Motorola phone looked too big & bulky. I loved the small size and feel of the eris. I'm not sure what all the lag is about as I really don't notice it at all other than a slight delay if I turn the phone sideways to type an email or message which is no big deal. I'm actually amazed how fast it loads internet pages, (maybe that is just verizon service) as my friend who has the newest Iphone is always complaining about how slow his phone loads internet data or dropped phone calls when he travels. I also didn't want to change carries as I use my phone heavily for business and verizon service is unbeatable in that regard. The eris was also very easy to sync to my Outlook as I don't use google mail at all. The Nexus sounds like a nice phone but TMobile sounds almost as bad as AT&T. Would I switch to it this summer just to have the lastest & greatest, nah that would be silly since the eris does everything I want in a phone. When my contract comes up again the Nexus will be old news then and there will something new out there that blows the Nexus away. I just bought a new Thinkpad laptop and certainly didn't buy the newest and fastest processor which seems silly as I saved hundreds of dollars on a laptop that is better than the one I had and does everything I need.
Compared to my old phone, the eris rocks!
