Thinking of getting a Nexus S

I live in Canada and the Nexus S will be released next month along with the Atrix. The specs of the Atrix are amazing but I don't care much for Motoblur. Although the Nexus S has a 1GHz processor, it's plenty for me.

Before diving into the Nexus S, are there any known issues with the phones hardware & software? To Nexus S owners, how do you feel it compares to other Android devices? Finally, if you had to do it all again, would you still purchase the Nexus S after owning it?

Thanks.
 
I would get the Atrix and use LauncherPro.

No reason to spending the same money on less of a phone. I would recommend LauncherPro to anyone using any form of Android except maybe Sense UI.

But really if MotoBlur is what's gonna turn you off of the Atrix, use LauncherPro.

Stock android and launcher pro plus beat everything else. Sense UI sucks.

Get the nexus S, put CM7 on it and overclock it. I'm running at 1.3 ghz right now and it's awesome :D

Launcher pro is quick but I hate the way it looks and it isn't very customizable. I'll stick with adw ex its everything I could ask for in a launcher.

Launcher Pro is actually very customizable. You can change the dock, icons, gestures, number of homescreens, number of icons rows and columns, and you can resize widgets. What is not customizable about that??
