Droid 2 is much better
I've heard rumors to that effect, and I'm really hoping it's true. There isn't a current high-spec Android phone with a real keyboard, and I want one. Have you actually handled one?

I have an Incredible. Sense (HTC's UI tweaks) is very nice, and I thought it was a must have, but I played with someone's Nexus One, and I think it's fine. In some ways I prefer the stock UI, and getting all of the updates instantly would be really nice. (I'm still waiting impatiently on Froyo, which will come "in the 2nd half of the year" or when someone figured out how to root the Incredible :) ) I'm not sure how p…
The weakest point on the Incredible is definitely the battery. If you use it like a phone (ie. just for calls) it will last a day or two without charging, but if you play with it a lot or browse the net regularly on it, you'll have to charge it every night at least.
Other than that, it's a great phone.

Ever since people started talking about the battery problems on android devices, this is what I have been most concerned about. Apple, with the new iPhone addresses this issue with the iPhone 4, but android phone makers just seem to be making devices with bigger screens, with nobody trying to bring out a device with a better battery.
If you want a slightly smaller screen with a physical keyboard, wait for the Droid 2 coming soon.
If you have even more patience, there are rumors of a 2Ghz Android phone coming in 4Q.
I have both the Droid and Nexus One. Nifty keyboard aside, Nexus One is a much better phone hands down. Lot's of instability problems with the Droid, and performance overall is much slower (and the keyboard while neat does make the device heavier and clunkier).
FWIW, I have essentially 0 stability problems with my Droid. (Can't speak to superk's other points because I haven't played with a Nexus One.)
I got a Nexus One because the idea of a device that imposes restrictions against the user on the behalf of the manufacturer or carrier is deeply offensive. It's possible to root most other high-end Android phones in order to install something like Cyanogen, but you're fighting against the current in those cases. If the exploit used to root it gets "fixed", then you might have trouble in the future. Plus you're suppor…

Are you using it with T-Mobile? If so, how is their service?
On a more serious note, I've only used it in SF and Seattle, but it's great there. I only pay $40/mo for unlimited data. (No minutes since I use VoIP.)
iPhone 4 is the best mobile phone on the market — period.
This was downvoted because?
B. You gave absolutely zero support as to why you think the iPhone's better than any of the Android phones.
C. Also, you come off as a fanboy.

The big problem with the N1 is the terrible touch screen. Quite often it won't register a touch on one or both axes and the "multi-touch" is a lie.
I have to agree here. I love my N1 but the 'touch' part blows.
