Google's Nexus One Phone

The Google phone was launched earlier this week and it generated quite a bit of buzz on the net. And why not? Most people see this Google Phone as the only one with a real possibility to become an iPhone killer. Looking past the whole techinical specs, i think that the key to this phone’s success, at least here in México, is the negotiations Google makes with Telcel and the other mexican carriers. I’ve seen it with the iPhone and the blackberry. iPhone’s plans are much more expensive than Blackberry’s and because of that I’ve seen more and more people using Blackberrys(ies).

Something that I can’t quite put my finger on is Google’s strategy. For what I’ve seen there are several Android phones out

Let's Compare

there, including Motorolas Droid and Dell’s Mini 3i among others, and isn’t Google competing directly with these other phones? I understand that Android is open source but, where is the advantage? Isn’t Google cannibalizing it’s own supporters?

These are only my thougths I would really appreciate it if you give me your opinions in the comments section.

Cheers!!
