Just fiddled with my friend's Nexus S.
I think my Captivate looks a little sexier, but man do I want gingerbread now.

ITS COMING TO CANADA

Quote:
Canadians, you must chafe under the yoke of a Gingerbread-free existence no longer, for the Nexus S is coming to the Great White North sometime in March. According to Mobilicity CEO Dave Dobbin, the handset will be available on the company's AWS band, but he also said that Bell, Telus, and Rogers will carry the Nexus S as well. If true, that means Samsung will be providing another model of the phone with support for WCDMA 850 / 1900 for it to work with Canada's big three wireless providers. We can only hope that's the case, as said model would be usable on AT&T's network -- making an awful lot of us living south of Canada quite happy. Peep the video after the break to hear the good news for yourself.

Samsung Rep confirmed today that it is indeed coming with ETA of early april. Didnt give pricing, but says it is 90% confirmed that it will be FULLY UNLOCKED when release. Of course, this is already news thats been confirmed/rumored for quite some time. Hearing it from a samsung rep just sounds a little bit more "official"

Recently Samsung and Google revealed that all major Canadian carriers would receive the Nexus S in the near future, and a now-live registration page at Samsung Canada indicates the launch may not be far off. You can sign up to be among the first to receive breaking news and announcements about the device and its journey to the Great White North.

Just a question, would you guys get the Nexus S or HTC Incredible S?

I am currently working in Taipei, and about to renew my phone contract next week. The Nexus S and Incredible S were both released last week here. Based on a 2 year contract, the Incredible S is about CDN$33 cheaper.

Although having the most updated pure Google experience sounds great, I have gotten used to HTC Sense (currently using HTC Legend). Also going to lose that LED notification light is going to be hard. Another thing to point out is that the Nexus S version we are getting does not use S-AMOLED..rather S-LCD. Should I just go for the Incredible S?

Just to note as well, the LG Optimus 2x was released over the weekend too but its not available through carriers yet.

I'm all for this phone being compatible with Canadian 3G frequencies but I hate when Canadian carriers get phones that I have been waiting for. Everyone ends up having the same phone and the re-sale value of the phone goes down like crazy.

Take the Nexus One for example, prior to Moblicity selling the phone, one could sell the Nexus One for at least $100 more than what the current price is.

Just my 2 cents.

It's too bad that the newest google branded device is not a whole lot more than a curved-screen galaxy s. And the galaxy s is buggy as hell Pisses me off every fucking day. I miss my nexus one, but when I went back to selling phones this year I sold it to get my hands on a phone I could demo and sell.

I'm putting my money on the atrix. The thing is a powerhouse.

Oh, I agree. But realistically its silly to see a bunch of people practically lining up for last gen hardware. Especially when a powerful device like the atrix won't be waiting long for a release of CM7.
