Nexus S announced

Google has announced that the second Nexus phone, known as the Nexus S, will be manufactured by Samsung and will be the first phone to use the Anroid 2.3 (Gingerbread) OS.

The Nexus S has a 4" Super AMOLED screen, a 1GHz Cortex A8 (Hummingbird) processor and 16GB of flash memory.

We'll have to wait till the 16th in the US and the 20th in the UK to see whether its a real match for other smartphones but on paper it certainly looks good.
