Nice phone...we need more phones like this to keep Apple on its toes and from raping us.

I don't get it. Why is Macworld reviewing about Nexus One. Unless, they admitted defeat that Nexus One beat their iPhone! *gasps*

8gb is cheap, I got my class 4 sandisk for $10 on Amazon. Once you get to 16gb is when it gets crazy. The cheapest one I've found is like $50. I don't really need more than 8gb. I've been on this card since the G1 released and I still haven't used it. I'm sitting at 4gb used right now but I think I'm going to eventually get a 16gb.

@DumbestCrayon oh wow I'm sorry man. Yeah at best buy 16gb is $100. You might be able to find them online cheaper if you look around, not sure. I did think I saw an 8gb at walmart for under $40, I could be wrong though. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Greatest phone I've ever owned...iPhone is done. This phone has double the RAM and a processor is a shit load better than the iPhones. Not to mention the AMOLED screen, 800x480 resolution 100,000:1 contrast ratio, Live Wallpapers, widgets. The list goes on. The iPhone has nothing on this phone.

Show me a 32gb for under $50. They're expensive. 16gb is $65. If you buy some cheap shit maybe but with sdcards you get what you pay for.

That phone looks really... well... the design isn't modern looking as I hoped it would be. The LG touch screen phone had a better design than this.

I was hoping for a more glossy look like the iPhone or a wide screen like the LG.

But I guess this phone isn't targeted towards the teenagers or youth.... This looks like something my dad would buy.
