Google announced today that the Nexus One handset is now compatible with the 3G networks of AT&T in the US and Rogers Wireless in Canada. A CDMA version (for Verizon) is coming soon.

Now That Everything Is Known, Will The Google Nexus One Phone Launch Generate A Collective Yawn?
The way that the “Google Phone” rumors and later Nexus One blogging played out probably mean that when Google finally announces the device on January 5 (in all likelihood) there won’t be much news.

Google Does TV Ads, To Push Chrome Browser In Commercials
