Rogers, AT&T Get Google Nexus One

Google has launched its Nexus One smartphone on two new networks, including the first in Canada with both AT&T and Rogers adding the handset to their line-ups. The phone also retails on Google’s Nexus One web site for $529 USD.

The Nexus One is the HTC-made phone designed and sold by Google, a fairly innovative handset that was the first to run Google Android 2.1. Sporting 512 MB of RAM, 512 MB of flash memory, a microSD slot with included 4 GB microSD card expandable to 32 GB and wireless features like 3G, GPS and WiFi 802.11b/g, all alongside the slew of handy features offered by the Android operating system, the Nexus One presents as a powerful smartphone.

Google Phone Press Conference Rumored

The wild leaks and rumors surrounding the Google Nexus One smartphone continue today as the latest news suggests that the company will hold an official press conference detailing the handset on January 5, 2010 in Mountain View, California.

An apparently legitimate press invitation surfaced on Engadget today, detailing a “Google Android” press conference. Given the hype surrounding the apparently leaked Google Nexus One pricing details, this conference is most likely the official “Google Phone” announcement.

From the invitation:

With the launch of the first Android-powered device just over a year ago, we’ve seen how a powerful, open platform can spur mobile product innovation. And this is just the beginning of what’s possible.
