Rumour Report - initial Nexus One retail sales by invite only
Engaget is reporting that they’ve had a tip which suggests that initial retail sales of the Nexus One may in true Google fashion be by invite only. This has a ring of truth to it as it is similar to the way in which Google have launched many of their software services including Gmail, Google Analytics and Google Wave, all of which were initially invite only services. Through this method Google has been able to better manage the rate of growth whilst maintaining consistent service and fuelling interest. If true that they plan to launch the Nexus One in the same way, it is possible that initial handsets from Google could be hard to come by in January.
