The video below shows Google Earth being used on Nexus One, which runs Android 2.1 and Motorola Milestone a.k.a Droid, which runs on Android 2.0.1. You will also notice that, when it comes to launching the Earth App. the Nexus One is way faster than the Droid. Maybe because it has a higher and powerful version of the Android OS but I think it is because it is a Google phone and optimized for running Google products and services. The app also runs a bit more smoothly on the Nexus One however even the Droid does not disappoint. I will shut up now and let the video do the talking!!

Told you about the Nexus One, Google's new phone based on next generation Android OS and now, somebody Twittered the picture of the Nexus One. Cory'o brien, a San Fransisco based blogger has twittered the picture of the Nexus One. The phone's design is not very different as compared to many HTC smart phones out there. This one is also manufactured by HTC and you can also see a large touch screen, scroll wheel but the phone does not have any HTC branding. Nexus One is completely conceptualized and designed by Google including the user experience as well as the applications that will run inside the phone.
