will this phone have CDMA or is it only GSM
I just cant understand why cant they (Verizon) see the reality (or want to ignore it!) of what their customers really want.
I nearly left verizon when the Iphone released, But i decided to wait.
IF this happens again with this one, I am going to be a Tmobile customer for a while.......

GSM only at first. I've read so many reports about this over the last 48 hours. Today I saw some reports that look concrete. The word is that it'll be available from Google and T-Mobile on Jan. 5. If you buy it from Google it will cost more but won't require signing any contract; in essence it'll be the same as the Android Developer Phones. You could get a pre-paid AT&T or TMO Data-only SIM card and use Google Voice to make calls. That would make it a $30 a month phone bill!!! T-Mobile will have subsidized phones that will be $199 with a 2-year contract. You could also use it with AT&T but only on EDGE. This first one only works with T-Mobile 3G. Another rumor says that this was the mysterious "Passion" that Verizon was supposed to be getting but that deal fell through because Verizon didn't want to help Google push an open, unlocked phone. BUT, VZW customers shouldn't worry; there's nothing stopping HTC from making VZW a comparable phone with the Sense UI. That's the beauty of a free, open-source OS.
Hey guys. This is my first post on this forum but I have been following this phone for a long time! Ever since the first picture was leaked in mid October. That picture and the speculation that this phone would come to Verizon has kept me from getting and eris or droid.
Anyway, I have some speculation to get off of my chest. boy genius report has just posted that Verizon is doing another buy one get one free on droid and eris. This will be the second one they have done in two months. This brings me to 2 things. One, before I began following these droid phones I was looking forward to getting the storm 2. Right before its release Verizon did buy one get one on their blackberrys. I know this was all blackberrys but the storm one was included. Verizon did two of these offers before the release and one when the storm two was released. I think this is reason to think that the same thing will happen with the nexus one.
The rumor right now is that google will sell an unlocked version of the phone that will work with tmobile and maybe att. As far as we know tmobile will not sell nexus one in their stores. So I think the joke will be on us in the long run. While we all saw the passionC in the hero rom, this will be the Verizon cdma version and will be sold in Verizon stores.
So, I know that took awhile to explain and I appreciate those who took the time in reading my thoughts. Any takers on this theory? I believe well be seeing something after the 24th which is the last day of bogo on droid and eris. It just doesn't make sense to sell this exclusively online because how will consumers get some hands on time with this amazing phone. I have to keep hope because I believe this is the phone I've been waiting for and I have to stay with Verizon.
I just don't see how you came up with that. Every piece of info that has leaked so far has pointed to it being sold by google and Tmobile and NOT Verizon or any cdma carrier YET.Hey guys.

I just hope that youre right, I have been out of a contract for 2 years and i am very tired of my phone ....
You know what? I don't even know anymore about what's going to happen! lol. Although I would really love and have been waiting on the Passion/Nexus One I'm sick of waiting. I've been dealing with my S1 for far too long! I never should have switched to the Eris for that short while because now I have Android Fever! So, I bought the Droid the other day. So, if something is announced in the next 30 days, the Droid will probably go back. But if not, I think I'll be happy enough with what I've got. I just don't see myself going back to my S1. Plus, if rumors hold out to be true the Droid should be getting 2.1 next month. Once its on the Droid, all I'll be missing out on is a piece of hardware!
My contract ran out yesterday and all this talk of HOT new phones is making me want to get something new.
