4. Only online. People still like to touch and feel it in a store before they buy it.

7. The bad customer service that has plagued the buyers on the Nexus One since lauch.

It seems like Google should have planned this out better. Hopefully its a lesson welled learned and that they improve this with thier Verizon launch.

So 20,000 people purchased the Nexus One without every holding one (most anyway) and went with a small time carrier just to have one.

Would LG, Sony, etc be able to sell that many units in the same way? I don't think they could. Only Apple could pull it off due to the kool-aide drinking fanboi's.
