You absolutely have to have a Home phone, not one with Sense or MOTOBLUR to ruin the experience. The Nexus 2 is going to be a Motorola phone, codenamed the Shadow. Looks very similar to the Droid with the sliding keyboard and whatnot, but probably a more powerful processor and other components.
If I was in your situation, I would honestly get the Droid. The Eris is whatever kind of phone it is, I don't care, I want a real Android phone, not some bubblegum. I wish I knew this before buying an Eris, but it was my first smartphone and I thought I knew better than my friends. They haven't rubbed it in, but no 2.1 or root three months afterwards has said plenty on the worth of the phone.

I'm confused what you meant by bubble gum. And this isn't meant to be rude or an attack just pure curiosity.
Htc droid eris is the same android experience you get with the stock android(aside from speed and different os update).
It's like, I'm a natural brunette, but i've died my hair black & blonde but essentially im still the same carmen...just with a slightly different look but still function the same.
Nexus one has all the basic features that all 2.0.1 & before phones have with a few new tweaks...live wallpapers, able to speak your text, 3d stuff but it's still essentially the same android.
i guess where i'm confused is the fact that where you said sense & motoblur ruin the phone...how so?
And how is the eris or any other skin on an android phone not a "real android phone"
Just curious(again not trying to be rude)
Also the Nexus 1 is coming sometime spring 2010 so why would he/she have to keep the droid for a year?
