Is the 'Nexus Two' coming on Nov. 8 from Samsung?

We know of a Samsung event on Nov. 8, but we don't know specifics, aside from it being an introduction a new Android device. A rumor has arisen that the event might be the introduction of a "Nexus Two" for Google.

In fact, it would be hard to believe the device would be dubbed the "Nexus Two;" after all that was an HTC device and we doubt HTC would be that generous. However, it is possible it might be another attempt by Google for a "Google phone."

Of course, Google already said its Nexus One experiment, with a globally unlocked phone that was exclusively sold via the Web was a failure, and terminated it. The URL previously used for the Nexus One now leads to a gallery of released Android devices.

It could, instead, be less aggressive: simply an Android phone with a pure Android experience, meaning no extras like TouchWiz, Sense, or Blur. Or it could be the Continuum, which has been leaked but not officially announced by Samsung or Verizon, a dual-screen Android phone.

The Continuum being announced on Nov. 8 would, in fact, be rather underwhelming since we are already aware of that device via leaks. Nov. 8 can't come fast enough.
