I had that one in the first picture, but for the life of me can't remember the name of it. It was a heavy cast metal brick, with a so-so slide-out keyboard. It was horrible, but I loved it at the time.

I also had at the time and still have the Nexus One mint in its box, Googles first phone. I LOVED the track ball on it!

After seeing your picture, I miss my Nexus One. I was so excited to have that phone.

Yeah, it felt exclusive at the time. I got mine directly from Google. I recall that being unusual at the time as most phones came directly from the carrier.

Heres a picture of my Nexus One, and next to it my BlackBerry Passport. Checkout the size difference!
