According to the contract you sign when you get the Nexus One, you'll be liable to Google and your carrier for an early termination fee if you cancel before 120 days. So if you don't like the Nexus One then send it back before 14 days has elapsed otherwise you may possibly be stung with a $550 fee if you do it before 4 months.
Yeah, that's a big fail. Hopefully this is merely a case of Google stumbling a bit at selling their first physical consumer product, because they clearly have not handled it well. I may be a Google fanboy, but clearly they've pretty much bungled ever step of this process. Lets look at it:
1) T-Mobile users can't get the subsidized rate on the phone
2) 3G doesn't work because of a bad bug that T-Mobile, Google, and HTC practically ignored for several days, and users couldn't get heard because there's no support from Google.
3) If you don't like your phone, you might end up paying more for sending it back than you paid for it unsubsidized to begin with.
That's pretty much a failure across the board. I don't have a clue what they're doing, and clearly neither do they!
