That pic was actually taken from here and their story you have found is kindof twisted. This is the phone Verizon is getting.

Google did make a version for their employee's only, that they will not sale. But this isn't coming to Verizon or anyone else.

This site has it mixed up

I like the idea of Google tryin to eff cell phone carriers in the a.

So GSM only it seems =(

In one article google says android as we know it now is not "real android" and that the NexusOne will have real android as its meant to be. .?????? IM SO EXCITED

The phone has gone through the FCC with no CDMA bands. Not to say a CDMA version will not rear its head at some point, but the phone in the OP's links is not going to Verizon.

Considering the rest of the world practically runs on GSM and the fact that Google wants to be at the center of everyone's everyday life, I'm not surprised it's GSM.

So far the phone itself looks really exciting, but if it only goes to AT&T or TMobile it might as well be a Razr.

I don't know breakmyfootoff. TMobile is set to launch their new HSPA 7.2 network before the end of the year. It is sporting speeds 10x that of 3g on Verizon.

My thinking is that this phone will be launched in co-ordination of the turning up the HSPA 7.2 system... and it very well could be... and I hate to use such an abused term... the real iPhone killer.
