Sprint to carry HTC Nexus One

There's plenty of HTC Nexus One news this week, some good and some bad. The latest news is that the Nexus One will be coming to Sprint, meaning all four major carriers in the U.S. will be carrying the "Google Phone."

The Nexus One currently comes as an unlocked GSM device, subsidized on T-Mobile, and in a different form, unsubsidized on AT&T and Canada's Rogers. It was already known that Verizon would pick up the device in the Spring, and now Sprint has joined its fellow CDMA carrier.

In its press release, Sprint did not announce either pricing or an availability date.

Despite the fact that sales have been mediocre, the HTC Nexus One is considered one of the best Android phones, and is the only one (until the Droid's 2.1 update) running the latest version 2.1 of Android. It's interesting that, as the Nexus One will be sold online only, Android phones currently in Sprint stores will be inferior to this model.
