>> Nexus One belongs in a class of device, which we call, super phones. It's the first device, the first phone, which we will bring to market with our operator and hardware partners from a series of devices. Now you might be asking, you may have read some of the speculation. You may have speculated. You might be asking how are we going to bring this product to market. Well today, we're also pleased to announce a new way for consumers to purchase a mobile phone through a Google-hosted web store. For $529 today, you can purchase a Nexus One phone without service and that's one of your options. Your other option is to purchase a Nexus One phone in the U.S. with service from T-Mobile USA for starting at $179.
>> The Nexus One really features some great hardware innovation. First of all if I just sort of walk through the device, if you look at the front of the phone we've got a 3.7 inch AMOLED display, you've heard that, the 480 by 800 wide VGA resolution display. What that really translates into, especially with that, AMOLED technology is just really, really deep contrasts and brilliant colors, and when you take a look for yourself today, later this afternoon, you'll see what I mean. Play with graphics. Play with the UI. It's just very, very rich. Under the hood is that 1 GHz Snapdragon processor from Qualcomm and this runs up to that one-megahertz speed and again what that really translates into is really fast. If I rotate the phone around and I look at that profile, again, we've been talking a lot about this form of device and it's really thin, its 11.5 millimeters thin which is no thicker a number two pencil. Combine that with the weight of the device, which is 130 grams which is no heavier than a Swiss army keychain knife. Now with that hardware we think we've got half the story and with the Nexus One it's really not just about hardware alone. We think with the Nexus One we've got this really great marriage of both hardware and software and it's that combination that makes the overall package so amazing. What you have now with these really high-end smart phones like the Nexus One is really a mini computer sitting in your pocket and we really wanted to push the 3D capabilities that you get with these high-end chip sets to their limit and introduce a lot of these sort of 3D concepts onto the device. Earlier this year we launched an app called search by voice and this was available on all android phones. It's on all android phones today, and it allows you to actually speak your search query rather than just type it, saving a lot of time. And then later this year we launched something called voice commands and just as an example this is available on the Verizon Droid today but if I wanted to, this is my search widget up here on my home screen, navigate to IKEA. So I just tapped the phone once and immediately it recognized my query IKEA. It's now going to do a Google search for that term matched against my GPS location so it knows where I am and it's going to bring up my search results here and because it knows, I'm here in Mountain View the nearest IKEA is just up the street in Palo Alto. I'm going to tap on that, that's the second tap, and now I get turn-by-turn navigation directions. That's pretty great that I can actually enable a search box with voice. What if I could enable every single text field in the phone with voice as well? What if I could speak my tweets? What if I could speak my Facebook posts? What if I could actually compose a whole e-mail just by speaking it? So what we've done with Android 2.1 is actually voice enabled every text field in the device and I'll give you an example of that. I'm going to launch here g-mail and I'm going to compose a new message here and let's see what should I say, here we go, check out this new voice keyboard, exclamation mark, I just hope this demo works, period.
Silent There you go.
Applause
