Got it half an hour ago, awesome!<p>I hereby declare my total fanboi-ship for Google for the remainder of today (after which I'll revert to loving them despite seeing their flaws).

Yup, me too! It sucks that the developer resources aren't available yet, since it's not being open-sourced until 2011, but I'm happy to get the box since it's $299 if you buy it.

Yep, just got one too. Willing to trade for a Nexus S though :)
