The Nexus One is a solid machine hardware-wise - in fact I think it even beats the droid.

The Droid, however, was exactly that for many.

Master_Ly - I felt the same. While not my FIRST smartphone (I had a Curve 8330), it was definitely one that I researched a lot before purchasing, and have been EXTREMELY happy with since I got it.
That's very common about what you said on the hard keyboard which is very surprising to me. Most people told me that prefer something "tangible." I do wish the Droid has the better processor like the Nexus One (Snapdragon) but I heard in the rumor mull that eventually the Droid will get overclocked to 800, probably during the over-the-air update to 2.1 Android. I really hope so!

Thanks for your thoughts on the Nexus One. I've heard many good things about the Curve and all of the praises that come with the BB trackballs. I almost jumped on the Storm2 but that entire screen clicking (SurePress, I think), that was just too funky. I'm glad that the Droid worked out for you especially coming from such a well established smartphone like the curve.
