Android Central has gotten hold of a picture showing the Nexus One in Verizon Wireless' Equipment Guide. The description clearly states that the phone will ONLY be sold through Google's phone website, as previously speculated. This confirms that Google will continue pushing people towards online phone shopping, and stick with its current strategy to change [...]
