The Incredible supposedly has better multitouch support than the Nexus One.
I'm sure once its unlocked and custom ROMs can be made for it, there won't be much of a difference. Google is at least supporting older devices officially more than Microsoft ever did (or at least the hardware manufacturers are). The Nexus One might get official updates faster but since the Incredible is a new device, HTC should be willing to update it to the next few versions of Android.
As of now, I don't believe there's a way to turn off SenseUI. I prefer the stock Android homescreens with widgets over Sense. I'm sure custom ROMs will change that though.

Buying the Incredible outright would be the same thing. No contract renewal. I agree that it doesn't make much sense to carry both the incredible and the N1. They are the same phone, other than Sense UI, on board storage, and a better camera on the Incredible. I just wonder what this will mean for the Sprint version. Sprint has confirmed it for their network. I hope this doesn't create a setback for that.
