My Phone Book - Part 4

HTC/Google Nexus One

It all started out as a test, of not only Android but a new Canadian carrier as well.

I signed up for Mobilicity to trial their network that October, and chose an Android handset to do the job.

Over brunch an N900 and N97 mini appeared on the table, plus a handset that was earmarked for me: the N86.

WOM World graciously loaned me this legendary Nseries device for a points-burning run around the world. Okay, mostly Asia.

It didn’t have any new groundbreaking features per se, but instead wrapped up the innovations of the day in an attractive and affordable package.
