Hilarious Craigslist Post

I was browsing Craigslist today and saw something that made me laugh hysterically, and I thought some of you other N1 owners would find this funny as well:
http://fredericksburg.craigslist.org/mob/1625777504.html
He's baiscally trying to sell unlocking services for iPhones, and has some screenshots attached of an iPhone skin to make the phone appear to be a Nexus One....

whats so funny about it?

I'm shocked there is a Nexus One theme for the iPhone. Maybe I shouldn't be...

There was probably a Nexus One theme for them before the Nexus One was shipping.

Maybe this is what Steve Jobs is so mad about. He can't believe people want to make his device look like its something better than what it is

The only thing that makes me laugh is how ridiculously horrible the theme actually is. Most of the iphone themes look semi-decent.

I have a feeling he's going to get alot of prank phone calls

i actually find this hilarious lol...you got all these fanboys bumming off the iphone...and then you uncover that deep down in their hearts they wish they had the nexus. finally the time has come when instead of people saying 'oooo thats like the iphone'...the tide has now turned to 'no wayyyy...thats like the nexus!!' haha...classic

teehee. whose jealous now, *****es?

I find it humorous that people in these forums go out of there way to bash another phone os. I came from nextel i836-> i850-> i870-> htc wing-> g1-> mytouch-> N1. I have never owned an iphone but I have used them, and I find very simple things on it such as smooth as hell scrolling, and when jailbroken all the little customizations are indeed awesome. I would never own one, but to sit her and bash iphone users, owners etc... is just plain sad. My N1 is not soooo far superior to iphone that I should just laugh at iphone owners and say they are jealous of my "wonderful" "beautiful" "amazing" N1. I love my phone and I love using it, but seriously guys seems to me you are insecure over something lol

I doubt that will ever happen considering the amount of people on this earth that actually know what a Nexus One is. N1 is a phone-enthusiast phone, Iphone is a every single person on this earth from 10-70 years old uses it
Sad but true

lol yeh u are right. i hope it stays that way too tho. i wouldn't want to get on the tube and everyone sitting next to me has the nexus. if i meet someone else with a nexus i wanna be able to ask them 'what kernel are u running' instead of 'what does your lock screen say?'
and i wouldnt say anyone is bashing. and if people are, i wouldnt say they are going out their way, iphone bashing is in quite a lot of peoples way lol

That looks hideous. I admit, though, I didn't realize a jailbroken iPhone was that customizable. But still ugly as sin. Ew, that resolution.

Quite a few people have recognised mine - "oh, is that the Google phone" - and shown a fair bit of interest.
I've always been a bit of a gadget freak (before the Nexus One I had Palm Pre, Htc Magic, G1, Nokia 6610....) but now I've found my personal ideal mix of currently available hardware & software I'm happy.
With the iPhone Apple hit the sweet spot for a lot of people. That and a strong brand identity let them sell a smartphone to a lot of consumers who wouldn't normally have looked for a "smartphone".
I suspect that this year will see a lot of mainstream consumers picking up Android devices - all it needs is some solid carrier backing.

One day, i noticed a kid on the subway staring at my phone while being with his friends. after 20 minutes he apparently loses it and he screams "OMG NEXUS ONE!"

So when you jailbreak an iphone you can add widgets to the desktop and all that?

Don't think the iPhone can do widgets as you know them.

so how many closet apple fan boys will be jumping on this deal? if i could run android on it, i might consider but verizons prices are crap. i hope sprint has a good line up later this fall and next year because this if anything will hurt where it counts.

Galaxy S for Sprint will be out by then.

Have you tried it out in a store? It's definitely different from Samsung's past attempts, in a good way. The Cortex processor is ridiculously fast, resulting in the smoothest Android experience I've seen to date.

The software is horrible, but the hardware is pretty good. The iPhone is popular because it's easy to learn and has more apps than any other OS. Oh, and guess what's in the iPhone. A Samsung processor.
No matter what Apple comes out with I will never get another one of their products. The thing that really sets Android from iOS and the iPhone is there is only 1 phone with iOS and there have been over 40 released android phones with atleast 12 more confirmed to be released and over 10 rumored phones.
I still believe that Android will out sale iPhone no matter where it goes.

Apple provides no freedom to its subscribers other than the reveled "App Store" that's about as varietal as it gets for them. No alternate phones to use, no alternate homescreen, GUI (unless jailbroken i suppose) just the same tried nd true iphone with a faeclift and some hardware changes from time to time some for the better, some for the worse lol. I love their PC's nd laptops but i will NEVER own an iphone.

If anyone here really has that big of a boner for the Iphone4 I'd be really suprised. It's not a bad phone but I just hate apple, and it doesn't do anything that the EVO or any other phone coming out can't do. I'd take an EVO over that any day. I'm android from here on out.

This video sums up this entire thread lol!!!
http://www.break.com/index/iphone-4-vs-htc-evo.html

Its still the same iPhone4 just a new radio. As the Android Phones continue to evolve it will still be what is out right now.

I work with a bunch of people who all have Iphone's and talk amongst each other and it kills me, I think it's safe to say I'm an android snob. One could say that I think I'm better for owning an android phone and having it rooted. I might argue at first, but honestly I can't help it. Apple to me is like owning a prius, and Android is like owning ****ing Optimus Prime.

Haha optimus prime. I actually have him as my lockscreen just cause i feel that exact same way. I wouldn't be surprised if I woke up in the middle of the night to find my phone in the backyard having a meeting with all the other local android phones on how they are gonna get rid of the iphones.
But seriously, I too feel the same way, I'm a college student and everyone rich kid and their parents have an iphone and think that they are so cool. All i can think when i see them, is my phone is better than yours. And i have a hero! a phone that in the rapid pace phone world, is obsolete.

And yet, i agree with this. While i would never own an iphone willingly, i do have a macbook and i couldn't be happier with it. I can do anything i want on it and it never fails me. No crashes, no freezing, no viruses. Nothing. Its solid.
But at the same time, i don't carry it around with me everywhere so everyone can see my macbook. I don't go sit in coffee shops just to surf the internet. I chose a macbook not cause it's the cool thing to have, but because I believed it was the best choice i could make. So I'm not an apple hater, I just think that if I'm spending a considerable amount of money on a tech device, it better work to its complete and full potential.

i used to hate android when it first came out, that's when winmo was the hot seller back in 2007-2008. yes it is the most popular os out there "right now" but im sure something will trump android in the near future. what im waiting to see is the next webos device.

If the iPhone was available for Sprint.... I would buy it. The only reason I didn't get one in the first place is because AT&T makes you pay out the ass every month. The iPhone 4 is the best phone on the market right now. The only downside to iPhone is that you can't customize it as well as Android, but... you can put Android on the iPhone! Again, the iPhone is the best phone you can buy right now.

The way it looks now, HTC, Motorola, and maybe even Samsung and LG are going to all be putting out phones that will be directly competing with not only the iPhone, but each other also. That's cool that Apple busts out hardware that puts all these companies in there place for a minute, but on the software sides of things, I'll take Android any day. The nonstop onslaught of Android phones coming out makes me think the Iphone4 won't be on top hardware wise for very long. They seem to be up against almost every phone manufacturer now.

Nexus S stands for sucky!!!!!

When I saw a picture of the Nexus S, I thought, what a ugly phone. Then, I saw that it's made by Samsung, nothing against Samsung but to me their phones are cheap The phone doesn't deserve the Nexus name. IMO HTC makes the best phones. I have three friends that have Galaxy S's, and their always asking me for my N1, to use my navigation, and make phone calls, because they're always losing their signal, and their GPS is screwy, plus they have ****ty battery life, so they live on their chargers. I keep telling them to root, but they want me to do it for them, I stopped rooting peoples phones who refuse to educate themselves about rooting, because they're always calling you with problems, because they don't understand. Another thing, I was thinking about buying the Evo, but my friend has it and the resolution is crap, the colors are dull, almost to the point of transparency, I think HTC focused too much on having the biggest screen, so I won't be buying that crap, I thought that all the high-end android devices after the N1 would blow us out, but have done nothing except confirm that I made the right choice with my Sexy Nexy, so we'll be together a little while longer. I thought the N2 would go in the direction of the Desire look, that's a classy phone, that has a professional look for older gents like myself, I'm very disappointed that Google gave Samsung the contract.

hmm yeah that will be it. so samsungs crappy build is no longer a concern.
the "ill never buy a samdung" brigade have scuttled back under there rocks.

Is it possible its something as simple as google wanting to continue use of a amoled screen capable phone for dev. phone purposes? I mean thats one of the main interest points ive noticed when anyone sees my N1. Everyone says "wow the screen is so crisp". Seeing how samsung took amoled away from everyone else just kind of makes sense on googles part if that be the case.
Nothing against HTC, they make great phones but i just wonder if use of amoled is more paramount than most give credit for. Look at it this way, all phone makers can more or less make the same kind of phones hardware wise. Only difference being is samsungs ability to use amoled. Just a thought , nothing more.

i read on here that HTC said the N1 would be thier first and last phone designed for a non carrier and that is why google had to go else where. I'd have prefered motorola, but samsung is an ok 2nd choice. HTC would obviously have been my first but they are out of the question. All i really care about is vanilla android with updates from google, a nice sized screen, good hardware, and a nice design.
the nexus S has all of the above minus the nice design...but it has helped me realize that the design weights a lot more in my purchasing decision than I had previously thought. I dont see myself buying a nexus s if it looks like the leaks orion processor or not

N1 makes Top 10 list

I just saw this post on CNN.com. The N1 is on there. Thought I would share
http://www.time.com/time/specials/packages/completelist/0,29569,2035319,00.html?hpt=T2

Here's the direct link. Go N1!
http://www.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,28804,2035319_2033840_2033834,00.html

That's pretty cool....finally recognized for it's greatness.

Wow, like seeing some great N1 news! About time!!

Hip-hip-hooray!

N1 also ranked higher than iPhone 4. sweet... Wondering why?

ah finally SOME recognition. But of course, the ipad was ranked number 1

I'm shocked that the N1 was ranked above the iPhone 4. I love my N1, but I have to say that the hardware on the iPhone 4 is incredible.
Perhaps it was rated lower due to its antenna issues.

You guys must be reading a different article than I saw. The one I read was more of the same "sales didn't meet expectations, it's not really that great of a phone but more of a novelty" drivel that I've seen written by everyone who doesn't "get" it.
This year Google tried (and failed) to capitalize on customer frustrations with wireless-phone manufactures and their multiyear contracts as well as the dominant tech company's brand. Nexus One is the first and only phone designed specifically by Google to take advantage of its Android software platform. Nexus One, which Google called a superphone (I can almost hear the sarcastic quotes around "called"), wasn't quite the runaway success the search company had hoped for (failure). The phone was ahead of its time but by only months (== insignificant), and even though you could buy it without a contract, you could pick between only AT&T and T-Mobile (bummer)— and you had to pay a premium to do so (the nerve of them to charge money for excellent hardware!). Still, Nexus One owners get updates directly from Google and ahead of other Android phone users.

It seems like for every positive thing they say, there's two more negative things said or implied. "Still, they get updates directly from Google" doesn't really sound like an appropriate closing statement to an article about a Top 10 piece of tech.
Compare that with the glowing praise for the iPhone4, which was rated one place BELOW the N1:
While sales of 1.7 million units in the first three days of availability are mighty impressive, the iPhone 4's 960-by-640-pixel screen resolution is even more impressive. No competitor has been able to stuff as many pixels into a 3.5-in. (9 cm) LCD. What's more, Apple's front-facing camera and FaceTime software have finally made mobile video chatting popular with regular people.

Is this from cnn also? Just remember that how many people work for cnn knows how to operate a phone. they're are not tech site like engadget our gizmodo our anybody that knows a lot about tech.they only look at the sales number and write **** they want. Probably the writer of that article is an iphone 4 owner that's why he is frustrated when the n1 tops their beloved one. I'd say most of the people there own an iphone or a blackberry device.

Loving the way they rated the Samsung Galaxy S, with its broken GPS and relatively poor performance for its hardware as #2, LMAO. Lost all credibility for it the moment I saw that.

I was a N1 user who moved on to the iPhone 4 (passed my n1 to my better half), I was pleasantly surprised that it got the higher spot! But what I find interesting is the least coverage it got on Engadget.com, which proves their bias against android and to apple. Yes Mr. Topolsky, keep up the sarcasm on your biasness - extremely shallow and I am still upset about the horrid proximity sensor which you guys never covered properly on your review.

Glad to see it ahead of the iphone 4, but as someone else said its funny to see the still negative comments mixed in with the praise. Love my N1 almost a year later.

Happy to see our precious at #5

Just like people called tablets, larges phones & forward facing camera's a gimmick/fad along with 3D it seems like this will also be one to prove us wrong.
Its funny because each of them had been done before but the return of them seems to be much more successful.
It's good to see more 3D phones, the more of them the more content we can expect to take advantage of it.

Yes, but the moral of the story is it wasn't a one time thing, I fee, were going to see a repeated release of qHD 3D displays

Well all these other phones need to hurry up and be released. I like the specs of the E3D but if Sprint is going back to their old ways of making you jump through hoops before they fulfill their part of the bargain I will be out of here. I've been with Sprint for a very long time, and they've been good to me for awhile now, but they are starting to do the same crap they did before that caused everyone to leave them.

Sharp is crap.

Since when? Sharp has always been considered a budget, tagalong, crap brand, as long as I can remember (Last 30+ years). ALL their products were always extremely low end/junk.

My Post was just to reflect that there are some high-end gems from them.
The U.S. has only seen that gem on the HDTV end.
I wouldn't count them out.
