While I prefer Google's products to most others, I absolutely agree
with the above.  I want a smartphone that is not tied to any online
service providers (ie. Google, Apple, Microsoft, Blackberry).

I'm starting to get a bit impatient waiting for news about Firefox OS
phones in Canada.  As a non-profit, I'd be willing to trust Mozilla a
bit more than the others above.

I'd also still like to try Plan 9/Inferno "Hellaphone"

Nexus S.
