I’ve been slightly lusting after the new Nexus One phone from google. Though I keep going back and forth from really wanting it to being meh about it. I’m definitely not willing to pay $530 for it.

I’m not eligible for an upgrade for another 8 months I think, after signing a 2 year contract for the G1 when it first came out. I really wish cell companies would offer 18 month contracts. That would be an ideal amount of time especially the speed which new phones come out. Either that or offer long time loyal customers some kind of upgrade path. I do feel slightly cheated at being an early adopter and then getting screwed when the next cycle comes around.

I think that’s also part of the reason why I’m not 100% sold on the nexus one, I’m sure something better will come along in a few months and then I’ll be able to pick up the nexus one for a steal.
