Nexus One Could Torpedo Google Android Strategy 14 Years Ago by Techwriter10 Persistent rumors have Google scheduling an event for Tuesday to launch its new Nexus One mobile phone. Engadget was even fortunate enough [URL="http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/02/exclusive-google-nexus-one-hands-on-video-and-first-impressio/"]to procure one[/URL] ahead of the launch. Whenever Google makes it official, it's clearly an … Re: Nexus One Could Torpedo Google Android Strategy 14 Years Ago by maddoghall It is fairly easy to get an unlocked phone, if you are willing to pay the full price for an unsubsidized unit. I am using an unlocked HTC Hero. The real question will be if the Nexus will allow an unsigned image to be installed and booted, allowing the customer to change the operating system. After all, Android is supposed to be "Open … Nexus of Forces erodes corporate privacy measures 10 Years Ago by happygeek Gartner defines the '[Nexus of Forces](http://www.gartner.com/it-glossary/nexus-of-forces)' as being "the convergence and mutual reinforcement of social, mobility, cloud and information patterns that drive new business scenarios".

Review: Minisuit Ultra-Thin Aluminium Keyboard Cover (Nexus 7 2013) 10 Years Ago by happygeek As I stated when [reviewing the Minisuit 3-in-1 Folio Case](http://www.daniweb.com/hardware-and-software/tablets-and-mobile-devices/reviews/477039/review-minisuit-3-in-1-keyboard-folio-case-nexus-7-2013#) for the Nexus 7 2013, the most important things a writer looks for in any keyboard are key travel, spacing and feedback.

The Minisuit 3-in-1 Folio manages, as far as any such small keyboard is ever going to achieve, to get the key spacing and feedback right. The scrabble tile keys are far enough… The confusing Nexus One Google name game 14 Years Ago by happygeek I am not surprised that the Trademark Office has refused the application filed by Google in respect of the Nexus One smartphone trademark. What does surprise me, however, is that Google went ahead and chanced its arm with the application when a cursory search would have shown that a similar trademark was already in use and therefore likely to cause… Re: Lagging Nexus One Sales Force Google to Cannibalize AdSense 14 Years Ago by WaltFrench <blockquote>[I]...they are free for Google...[/I]</blockquote> Are they? If a user clicks on a Nexus ad that appears on xyz.com, xyz gets nothing? I wouldn't go so far as to say Google is “cannibalizing” AdSense, but it's clear that marketing isn't free.

I despise the contracts, gouging, limitations, and overall business model that is not customer centric. Google is in a perfect position to change the whole world of communication as we know it. I pray they actually are thinking outside the box enough to make this work! Re: Nexus One Could Torpedo Google Android Strategy 14 Years Ago by Techwriter10 I agree with you Jccraig. In fact, I wrote a post on that very subject recently called [URL="http://www.daniweb.com/news/story246307.html"]Could Google Phone Mark End of Network Domination[/URL]. But at the same time, I still think Google would be better served as company to stay out of the hardware business. Thanks for your comment. … Re: Nexus One Could Torpedo Google Android Strategy 14 Years Ago by lordram There is nothing like a little competition to get the adrenaline pumping. Maybe this is a litte insurance policy Google has created to tell the rest of the gang, "look guys, get behind this seriously, or else, just in case our hardware takes off, what will you guys look like an year from now?" Besides, if the other vendors succeed, … Re: Nexus One Could Torpedo Google Android Strategy 14 Years Ago by Techwriter10 The trouble with that approach, lordram, is that Google is essentially competing with itself in this instance. As I wrote, they don't really need to compete with the system they've already set up and appears to working just fine. Thanks for commenting. Ron Re: Nexus One Could Torpedo Google Android Strategy 14 Years Ago by nathanmarks I don't think this is as complicated as everyone makes it out to be. The Droid is only available on Verizon; the N1 only with Tmobile (and maybe At&t). Some people won't get an iPhone or Droid because of the carriers the phones work with; some also won't get an N1 if it only works with T-mobile. This isn't about competing with the Droid (or … Re: Nexus One Could Torpedo Google Android Strategy 14 Years Ago by Techwriter10 Nathan, Interesting analysis, but I think Android was doing well already, and as I pointed its market share has been growing steadily and expected to continue to do so through 2012 (according to one article I saw). As for the carriers, there is something to be said for this, but there will be Android phones eventually across all carriers whether or… Re: Nexus One Could Torpedo Google Android Strategy 14 Years Ago by nathanmarks Ron, You could be - and probably are - right. I'm only offering my perspective as someone who has neither an iPhone or Android device and is looking at both of them since my contract on my T-mobile Blackberry is up. Yes, Android is doing pretty well, but from an outsider's perspective, at this moment in time it's all about the Apps. … Re: Nexus One Could Torpedo Google Android Strategy 14 Years Ago by Techwriter10 The carrier matters to the extent it doesn't gouge you (which they all tend to do, let's face it) and it works in your area. I chose AT&T long ago because they worked in my house and Verizon at the time didn't. Years later with family contracts that have different renewal dates, it's pretty hard to switch at this point. I use an iPhone and I've… Re: Nexus One Could Torpedo Google Android Strategy 14 Years Ago by dahhboo Ron, I totally agree w/ your basic concern: I've been thinking the same thing since the N1 was initially announced, er... leaked. The only rational explanation I can think of is that Google believes that the 1st wave (anything pre-2010) of Android phones is starting to set an expectation of "not as good as an iPhone." If Google … Re: Nexus One Could Torpedo Google Android Strategy 14 Years Ago by Techwriter10 Dahhboo Interesting theory, but you would think that the carriers would clamoring for the best phones they could get regardless, wouldn't you? But you're right that in the end we just have to wait and see how this plays out. Should be interesting to watch though, shouldn't it? :-) Thanks for the comment. Ron Re: Nexus One Could Torpedo Google Android Strategy 14 Years Ago by woooee The same kind of thing was said when Proctor and Gamble introduced Oxydol in the late 1920s. It competed with Tide, which was then the market leader. Sure enough, Oxydol reduced Tide's market share but the combined market share was greater than Tide's alone. Re: Nexus One Could Torpedo Google Android Strategy 14 Years Ago by Techwriter10 Wooee, Interesting comparison, but we are talking about consumer goods strategy versus a strategy of giving away the basic product (in this case, the Android OS). I'm not sure the two are an apples to apples to comparison, but I'm impressed with your knowledge of history. Thanks for commenting. Ron Re: Nexus One Could Torpedo Google Android Strategy 14 Years Ago by LarryCresskill Will the new google phone be "unlocked" and, if so, would anybody want to recommend the best carrier to use with unlocked phones.
