Nexus or Passion - Which do you like better?

On the other hand, the few comments we've heard about the GoogleUI sound very intriguing too.

Yea, I'm really surprised we haven't seen any screen shots of the GoogleUI. The only photo I've seen looks like the plain Jane Android UI like the Moto Droid. Maybe the Nexus One just has regular Android UI and the first Tweeters were impressed with the resolution and AMOLED screen, not the UI. Definitely hope someone does a video in the next few days showing the animated screens of the Nexus One.

trackball is a necessity. Not only does it allow for nice 1 handed navigation on a large touchscreen bit more importantly in android os it is almost impossible to successfully place a cursor accurately and the do a cut and paste. Currently android os cut and paste is the worst. o can't believe they haven't Adressed this!

I have to agree whole heartedly after trying to use the wife's Eris in cut and paste. Most helpful was the trackball.

But why a "trackball" ? The new BB has an optical sensor that is fantastic and accurate.

was just about to say that!!!

i understand what you are saying with copy and paste ... but a trackball???

trackballs are sooooo 90's certainly not at home on new technology smart phones

Optical Sensors people (namely HTC) like what looks like to be on the Bravo

not to mention i think trackballs are just ugly, protuding out of an otherwise attractive phone, poking out like an unsightly wart or mole

as you may have picked up i dont really like the look
