Google has silently added Nexus One Phone that is compatible with AT&T and Rogers Wireless 3G network.

https://www.google.com/phone/choose?hl=en&gl=US&s7e=

Compatible with 3G on AT&T (U.S.) and Rogers Wireless (Canada)
Supports three 3G/UMTS bands (850/1900/2100 MHz) and four GSM radio frequencies (850/900/1800/1900 MHz)

The AT&T and Rogers Wireless 3G compatible version of Google Nexus One Phone sells for $529 just like its unlocked T-Mobile counterpart.

Google still on track to release Verizon Wireless and Vodafone versions of Nexus One Phone this Spring 2010. For sure some AT&T customer would buy this phone right now.

Would you “ditch” your iPhone for an AT&T Compatible Nexus One Phone? I know this guy just did it.

The Register reported that Verizon is forcing their wireless customers to use Microsoft Bing as the only search engine on their smartphones. What about the Droid phones? Will Verizon be able to set Microsoft Bing as the only search engine on theDroid browser search box? Afterall, Droid phones are based on Google’s Android platform.

Well, this could be something the competitors can use against Verizon. Thanks Verizon for sending those over-the-air updates to your favorite smartphone.

Nexus One, Here I come! December 15, 2009

It seems that I’ll be getting Nexus One, the fabled Google phone. Since Reuters broke the story and picked up by the Android Guys; it is really likely I’d be getting Nexus One this January 2010.

From Android Guys:

Here’s the price: $199 unlocked in stores. $100 rebate online if you have an active and old Google account. That $100 rebate is either to buy it $99 online from Google’s online phone store, for using on Android Marketplace or for using on any Google Checkout stores. Can also be used for T-Mobile or AT&T pre-paid Data SIM card service at $29 per month, no contracts required.

What does “old Google account” mean?

I know that I have google account when it was first in invitation only phase.

We’ll find out in January 2010.

p.s. I read it via Hacker News.
