Engadget has discovered that a version of the Google Nexus One has been submitted to the FCC, using WCDMA bands I, II and V. That means that, if approved, and if AT&T decides to sell the device, that an AT&T branded Nexus One could soon appear to challenge the iPhone on the AT&T network.
That also means, as Engadget points out, that Rogers, Bell, and Telus and many European carriers will be able to take advantage of the device.
However, the reaction by many AT&T users will undoubtedly be: “Hey, why is AT&T adding another data-intensive device to the network when it’s struggling to handle the iPhone?” Because it’s spending billions to upgrade its network, perhaps.
