I'm assuming your Nexus S had GB on it? For you to say that it's comparable to vanilla GB is pretty interesting.

The Arc really does look like a top notch phone aesthetically, but those shortcomings are pretty big IMO. At least it looks like we'll be getting it pretty soon here in Canada, so I'll be able to play with it more in person.

The only people who should buy SE phones are Sony fanboys. Everyone else, stay away.
I agree. Sony ericsson has been disappointing for the last few years now. They're always lagging behind the technology that other companies offer. The last good phone that they had which was on par with the technology of its time was the k750 and the k800. It's been downhill from there. Until sony ericsson changes their business model and manages to keep up with companies like HTC and Samsung, I would not invest any money on one of their devices.

Well my X10 just died a few days ago.. after the countless times trying to revive it, gave up and got an iPhone 4. Rogers already has the xperia arc and play on preorder for a while now though. Love how thin it is but reliability is something that you can't give up just for looks

That's what I would have thought too, but even with CM and LauncherPro, it's really choppy. It just doesn't have the hardware to warrant its price. It's about twice as expensive as it should be, probably because of the brand.

The nexus I have is 16GB, it just that I like the camera is better then the S, and more slim!
But both of them are good phone, nexus S you can custom it as much as you want, ARC have better camera features
