According to multiple reports, the UK launch of the Google Nexus One has been delayed until the middle of next month, a setback that should lose it sales to the HTC Legend, which is set for release in a few weeks.
The handset will be available unlocked at a premium or locked to Vodafone with a two-year contract for free.
Because of the delay, the Nexus One will have to compete with the Legend as well as the HTC Desire, both of which use Android, along with the very popular HTC Sense user interface.
Overall, the Nexus One has struggled in the US, and Goldman Sachs recently cut their sales estimates from 3.5 million this year to a measly 1 million.
There was no reason behind the delay.
