Prior to the release of the Nexus One - Google's input to cellular device manufacturers was limited to providing the Operating System (Android) only. With the Nexus One, Google designed the device completely and hired HTC to build it to Google Specifications (Much like Apple designed and controls the iPhone but subs out the actual manufacturing). The initial Nexus One is a GSM device (meaning it will work on TMobile or ATT in the US) but a CDMA version will be released soon (for Verizon or Sprint). Google is attempting to change the cellular landscape by selling the device directly without tying the buyer to a specific carrier - although some carrier's may choose to subsidize the device if you contract with them).
