Nexus One - any of you T-Mobile subscribers use one/getting one?

[HandsomePrince]

So how is your experience w/ it on T-mobile's network?

Thought about ti. I went with the n900 instead. Dells website says it should ship tomorrow.

I DESPISE the new threaded sms function on the new Blackberrys. It will probably be the end of me buying BlackBerrys unless they fix it and fix it fast.

I went into T-Mobile's store last night to see if the new Nexus is in inventory to look at. I found out that while Google uses T-Mobile as a primary netowrk partner, T-Mobile stores will not carry the Nexus and that you must buy this device directly from Google.

I'm going to keep my eyes open for one that I can play with a little. If I find one and I like what I see, I will be abandoning BlackBerry and buying the new Google device.

I couldn't be less happy with RIM over the way they have totally ruined sms message processing on the 9700.

I am planning on buying one, i just have to sell my 9700 first

I will not be buying one, the battery life SUCKS on Android Phones. and my Onyx is pure gin and juice in my book.

I'm gonna buy a new Blackberry... probably the 9100. I hope it comes out for TMo.

I'm thinking about getting one but I need more info before I decide.

It looks cool and I'm interested in playing with it, but I don't see myself owning it anytime soon.

I like Android but it still has a way to go in terms of battery life, app development, and consistent email delivery (that is, for emails other than Gmail). I'm perfectly happy with my BB. Nexus One seems quite pricey.

I'm waiting to see what other new BBs come out in the future.

Bought one yesterday, it was delivered this afternoon. I bought it outright, unlocked and no contract. I put it on my family plan and had T-Mobile activate unlimited data on that line for me. I love the thing, more so than my iPhone 3G S I sold last month. The only flaw I would place on it, is the trackball. HTC needs to just dump it, totally not needed for a full screen device.

I use Google Voice and have 3 phones set up through it so I can just grab whatever phone I want for the day.

The poor battery life a lot of users experience with Android devices can be managed with some simple settings changes. Also, the newer builds of Android did wonders for the battery life as well.

Instant email is indeed something BB has cornered the market on, but Android has a lot of other advantages.

I think Android has THE best platform for application development. App World has been a big disappointment for me. Very few useful apps. Apps that seem useful end up functioning poorly. Google released development platforms for all three major OSes, plus hosts their own online guides for developers.

How much is T-Mobile charging for the internet with these phones? The same as the blackberry internet service?

If someone grandfathered the $19.99 unlimited BIS plan, will that work with a droid?

I would like to give one a try, but I read somewhere that if purchased through T-Mobile, there is only one plan you can get for $79.99.

But if I purchase the phone outright, would I be able to keep my current plan?

You don't purchase through T-Mobile, it's only available via Google's phone store. The only service plan offered on contract is the EM 500 $39 plan with unlimited data and text bundled onto it. However I have read that you can call T-Mobile after you have it activated and change to a different EM plan, you can't ditch the data or text plans though.

Yeah, same as the Berry plan. $30 for unlimited data added to my Unlimited EM plan, I didn't opt for the text plan as all my SMS is done via Google Voice. I doubt a grandfathered BIS would work as that's for BlackBerry's to connect to the BIS.

I ordered one this morning, should get it tomorrow. I just wish that TMo had at least one at their stores that people could use first before buying...

Dude for the love god could you please stop posting about the damn threaded sms feature of the new 5.0 OS. I have read countless post by you trashing one damn feature. The OP asked a simple question and that was who if anyone was getting one? Now I understand that you wanted to explain why you want to move on to a new device and that is great, but just f****** do it.

Now to answer the question at hand. I have given this much thought and I am considering getting one. I just love all of the videos I have seen which just makes me want it more. This has been the first phone that has me wanting to leave the berry. I may just make that move I guess we shall see.
